Which explains the significant overlap on popular titles available on both Kindle Unlimited and Kobo Plus, but the latter trumps Amazon's ebook subscription service by offering all books in an entire series on Kobo Plus. We’ve been keeping an eye on it for a few months and the library is certainly looking better than what it was in 2021 – specifically, we can see more mainstream/popular authors listed now but they are still few and far between. That said, Kobo can't add any title to its subscription service unless the publication allows it. This issue is not limited to Kobo’s platform we had a similar problem with Kindle Unlimited, where it was easier to peruse the library on a desktop web browser than on a Kindle ereader.įrom what we can tell, the platform seems to be growing.

During our testing of the service, we used the Kobo smartphone app to add books to our Kobo Plus library and then read on the Libra H2O and Sage tablets. If you’re looking for something specific, you can use the Kobo Store’s search bar on the ereader under the Discover tab and then filter by ‘Kobo Plus’ from the dropdown menu. If you’re trying to browse via a Kobo ereader, you’re limited to five categories of ‘most popular’, ‘new’, ‘page turners’, ‘hidden gems’ and ‘crime, mystery and thrillers’, each with just 20 titles listed. Titles are spread across every genre, but browsing these are best done on a web browser or the Kobo mobile app, both of which offer a list of genres that you can use to filter the catalogue. But unlike Kindle Unlimited, which cycles through selections of its one million titles, every single ebook on the Kobo Plus platform is available to you to download.
With no more than 600,000 ebooks available on Kobo Plus, its catalogue is pretty limited when compared to its direct rival.

This comes after a 30-day trial, which is what you’ll get with any other ebook subscription service like Kindle Unlimited or Scribd, and is plenty of time for you to road test the service. If you’re in Canada, Australia or New Zealand, a Kobo Plus subscription will set you back CA$9.99 / AU$13.99 / NZ$14.99 a month, matching Kindle Unlimited… at least in Australia. Kobo has confirmed that it doesn’t have any plans yet to expand to other countries, but it’s possible that it’s just a matter of time before it becomes accessible in markets where the company’s ereaders are officially sold. It launched first in Canada, the Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal in 2020, then arrived in Australia and New Zealand in 2021. Where Kindle Unlimited has far more reach, Kobo Plus is only available in a few regions. (Image credit: TechRadar) Kobo Plus: price and availability
