Decent App

Fairly decent e-reader with the ability to listen to the text included. However, there are some opportunities available that would make this a fantastic app…
The voice reading the app is very robotic making comprehension more challenging… To the point that it’s not worth using that feature.
The most problematic feature of all is the inability to use your Apple Pencil to jot notes in the margins.
Lastly, some books get imported as a PDF instead of a typical book so swiping to the next page actually moves you to the next section or chapter.
Other than those opportunities, this really is a rather decent app.

First thing first, I don't expect perfection from anything in life esp. technology, also if I could live in B&N I honestly would & have loved them since I was little, still do, & I am a voracious reader. That being said B&N should be ashamed of themselves with the terrible customer service but esp. since they're like 85-90% about BOOKS and READING. The fact that the kindle & ibooks apps are SUPREMELY better with overall use & book formatting should honestly make B&N feel ashamed. I think what makes it even worse is that most of us use this app because of school & getting degrees is hard enough without your school e-reader frustrating you chapter, after chapter, after chapter. You're better than this B&N & us college students need AT LEAST paragraphs that don't split midsentence causing back & forth reading, WAY more font selections & definitely font sizes need a tweak. It's either too big or so small I end up squinting or squirming trying to read comfortably. Please someone with power to change this app read & truly consider mine & everyone else's suggestions. We're trying to help ourselves with studying & making it "easier" but that is difficult without someone doing something. End of rant; thanks to those who read it all.<3

Horrible Support Terrible App

I had to use this app because it was the only option to purchase the e-book through my college bookstore Barnes & Noble. The app worked for a couple of days and then I got an error message and it logged me out and will not allow me to log back in. I get a small message in the upper left hand corner that just same error. I can log into the app on my iPad but need it on my iPhone for the audio. Called customer service and was on hold and three times it told me to press one to leave a message but it did not wait to see if I pressed one it forced me to voicemail where my call would be returned within one business day. On the fourth call I finally got a person who’s only solution was to delete the app and download it again which I had already done. So the only option because they do not have any tech support is to escalate to a Supervisor to see if they have any other ideas and they will be back in touch with me within one business day. For an app that provides college books for students there should be better support. I am loosing valuable reading time in a short summer semester. If you can get your ebook another way do it, avoid this app anyway you can!
