Direct Textbook has announced the release of its revamped mobile app, which lets college students instantly compare textbook prices from hundreds of online stores. The new version of the Direct Textbook app introduces a barcode scanner that makes it easier than ever for students to find the lowest textbook prices and save an average of 50 percent – and up to 90 percent – on textbook costs. The free app runs on both iOS and Android platforms, available for download on the App Store and Google Play Store, respectively.
The Direct Textbook app turns smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices into textbook barcode scanners; users can either scan the barcode of the textbook they need or manually enter its ISBN number into the app. The app searches more than 200 online bookstores and 10,000 libraries to compare prices for new, used, ebook, rental, teacher and international textbook editions. The app also displays shipping information, available discounts and coupons in order to rank textbook deals by their total prices. If a student likes an offer, they can complete the purchase on the seller's website.
The Direct Textbook app mirrors the Direct Textbook website, which since 2002 has been trusted by more than 20 million parents and students to slash college textbook fees. The app brings the power of DirectTextbook.com to mobile devices so students can compare and purchase textbooks at the lowest prices from anywhere, anytime.
