The Pearson eText app is a great companion to Pearson’s eText browser-based book reader. It allows existing subscribers who view their Pearson eText titles on a Mac or PC to access their titles in a bookshelf on a 7” or 10” Android Tablet either online or via download. The tablet device must support Android OS 3.1 or newer.
With the Pearson eText Android app, book content is displayed with the highest quality fidelity to the print and online versions of the textbook. The Pearson eText Android app provides students and instructors with many of the same features available to web-based eText subscribers. The Pearson eText Android app provides full-text search capabilities, a notes manager, support for multimedia content, glossaries, and many other exciting features.

1. Install this app on your Android tablet and connect to the Internet.
2. Launch the app.
3. In the eText app, when prompted to Sign In, enter a valid Pearson Mastering/MyLab Username and Password.
4. Your bookshelf will display your subscribed titles.

loading times for text often exceeds 5 minutes, frequent crashes, and text that is advertised as being downloadable for offline reading is not available even when it allows me to download chapters - I have no way to access what I've download b/c the app reports that the content is not available offline. Trying to use this app to access the etext is a total waste. Pearson seams to have claimed the market in university required texts, charges a lot of money for their materials and has disappointed me in every single aspect.

This app loves to force close. If I am in text, go to look at a website quickly, and come back to the app... f.c. If I try to use video links in text, this also causes a force close. Nexus 10 4.2.2 (kind of a deal breaker when doing school work)
