Tap the category you’re interested in, as shown in Figure 7.

- The name of the movie, the category, and buttons to either rent or buy the movie at the stated price appear at the top of the screen.
- Swipe up and down the information area to view the video trailer, rate and review the movie, view user reviews, read the synopsis, cast, and credits, and get rental period information.

- The Buy window shows you the credit card that you have on file with Google Play, which you need to buy a movie or TV show (even free ones) from the Play Store. If you don’t have a card on file, Google Play takes you through the steps to register your credit card.
