The use of cell phones is becoming more widespread. We went from calling and writing SMS to managing stock operations from our cell phone. Of course, this extends to all areas, such as reading. Before we needed an entire library to have hundreds of books, but now, with a six-inch cell phone and internet connection, that's enough. The many titles are saved in the cloud and we can access them through certain platforms. Many of them are paid apps like Amazon's Kindle. But if you want to try the experience of reading on a screen, here are some apps to read free books on your cell phone.

Some of these apps are limited to a basic version and others their source of income is through advertisements. But after testing several, we have the best we found, where the ads are not invasive and navigation is simple.
The application for reading free books on your cell phone par excellence. Google is a platform with multiple services. Play books is a simple app where you can buy books of any type, but also add them easily. If you have downloaded any epub previously, you can upload the file and load it into the app. Plus, you can edit it as if it were a PDF. With almost two million votes and more than a billion downloads, it is one of the most downloaded book apps on the Android market.

With Google integration, you can also use features like voice control, Google search, or interactive chat. All of these tools we are familiar with are native on an Android device.
Wattpad
The application of users to users. This app not only allows you to read thousands of stories for free, but it also has a network of writers that you can join. Every user can read and write their stories and share them with a community of 90 million people.
Unlike Google Play Books, Wattpad's model is through ads . You don't have to pay anything, but you will have to pause reading on average three or four chapters to see the ads. But if you also dare to write, who says you won't be the next Stephen King? Or the next JK Rowling?
eBiblio or as the new online public library may be known. The eBiblio system works like a traditional library. And it is that this application made for the government is adapted to reserve books, audiobooks, magazines or newspapers with the public library card. Just like in the in-person model, you will have something to borrow without a time limit. In fact, any reservation problem within the application will be resolved by the library you are affiliated with. . And although it still doesn't have reviews on Google Play, it has more than one hundred thousand downloads.
