By Dianna Dilworth 

scribdappScribd has updated their iOS and Android mobile apps with a new feature that lets readers highlight their favorite passages.

The update allow a reader to mark up the pages of an eBook the same way they might mark up the pages of a print book. The tool allows readers to share their highlighted passages with friends.

In addition to the highlighting feature, Scribd’s latest app update also includes a note taking tool that lets users write down notes as they read. Another new addition includes a Zoom feature that allows readers to zoom in on maps and other illustrations within the app.
