User Reviews

Users praise a large library and customizable reading experience with portable, cross-device access. Recurrent issues include sign-in and access problems, download/upload failures, removal of in-app purchasing, limited highlighting/export options, and rough reading UI. Overall, it performs well when functioning but reliability and content delivery are frequent pain points.
Pros
  • Large library of titles and strong interest in reading on NOOK
  • Highly customizable reading experience (fonts, brightness, format)
  • Portable and cross-device access to books (read on multiple devices)
Cons
  • In-app purchases are unavailable or removed, limiting purchasing options
  • Sign-in/access problems across devices lead to loss of library access and unreadable titles
  • Content download/upload failures prevent reading (downloads stuck, can't download or read)
  • Highlighting/annotation features are clunky or missing export options
  • Reading UI/navigation issues (no smooth scrolling, pages can close mid-reading, navigation awkward)
