User Reviews

Users largely report an unstable Barnes & Noble iOS app: persistent performance problems (lag, timeouts, crashes), frequent login issues, and checkout/payment failures. Search and navigation are tedious, and in-store stock details are missing. A few notes mention catalog variety and membership support, but reliability concerns dominate.

Pros

Large catalog of books available in the app.
Barnes & Noble membership features can be used within the app for purchases.
When the app runs smoothly, users can complete orders.

Cons

Severe performance issues: slow loading, lag, freezing, and crashes are common.
Frequent sign-in/out and login problems with session timeouts.
Checkout and payment errors that prevent purchases.
Poor search functionality and confusing navigation/UI, making it hard to find items.
Lack of clear in-store stock information or shelf locations.

Recent reviews

I updated the app in the past couple of weeks. Although there was some lagging before and the occasional issue signing into my account, I regularly used the app for browsing and purchasing. Even while I was in a physical store I would use it to check availability. With the new update I can do NOTHING. If I can get to a log in page, I can only view my orders but have to “log out” to return to the store front? At one point I could search for a book, but then, if I tried to click a book or add it to my wishlist, the app would bump me back to the top of the search results. The navigational buttons disappear and are not intuitive. Honestly, this update made my life worse.

The new app has so many issues, my preorders don’t show up. My payment methods don’t show up. It’s so slow. There’s no direct link to signed books anymore. Please fix your app.
