Visuals: This is just the Google Play Books logo (a navy rounded play button symbol with a blue bookmark on it) on a white (if the device is on light mode) or gray (if the device is on dark mode) background. The "Google Play" wordmark is at the bottom of the screen.

Variant: Until 2023, the play button symbol was less rounded, and a blue book was in it in place of the giant bookmark.

Technique: A digital graphic.

Audio: None.

Availability: It is seen when you open the Google Play Books app on a tablet or a phone.
