Read a TG Storytime Story in Google Play Books
To read a TG Storytime story in Google Play Books, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and upload the file to your Play Books library. You can then read it on the web, Android, iPhone, or iPad.
Download the story
WP Downloader is a free web tool that does not require installation. Find the story on tgstorytime.com. Its URL should look like this:
https://tgstorytime.com/viewstory.php?sid=1234Copy the full story URL and open the TG Storytime downloader. Paste the link into the box, and WP Downloader will detect the site.
Select EPUB as the output format. EPUB is free for everyone and works with Google Play Books. You can choose whether to include the story’s images.
For TG Storytime, WP Downloader downloads the whole story. It cannot download a single chapter or a list. If the author adds chapters later, download the story again to create a new EPUB. WP Downloader cannot add chapters to an existing EPUB.
You do not need to sign in for public stories. If a story is available only to members, you can sign in with your TG Storytime account to download content that account can already read. WP Downloader uses your credentials only to fetch the story you requested. It cannot bypass locked content, paywalls, or age restrictions.
The TG Storytime download guide covers this process in more detail.
Upload the EPUB to Google Play Books
Google Play Books accepts personal DRM-free EPUB and PDF files. You can upload the EPUB from the Play Books website or its Android app.
Upload from a computer
Open the Google Play Books website and sign in. Use the upload option to choose the EPUB from your computer or Google Drive.
Once the upload is complete, the story will appear in your Play Books library. You can open it in your browser or in the Play Books mobile app.
Very large EPUB files may reach Google’s upload size limit. If an EPUB containing images is too large, download the story again without them.
Upload from Android

After it uploads, open the story from your Play Books library.
