Hi Teresa, I have a question. The other day I opened the "LearnAlly" app on the phone. With Learning Ally, one pays a subscription like Bookshare. In the "Read@Go" app, one can search and download periodicals and books. Why can't one do it in the "Learning Ally" app. It's running on the same principle. I understand that one needs to purchase the books or magazines from the 3rth party and then sync it to the phone, but in the case of Learning Ally, I don't think it should be this way. HTH.

To search for books, you have to go to the Google Store site. This is the case with all third-party apps that require you to buy books.
