I only downloaded this app because the website is literally unusable (won't even load most of the time). Unfortunately, the app isn't better. I want to upgrade my legacy membership, but get a server error when I try to log in. I searched "planner" and got ZERO results. I love the B&N store, but this is just ridiculous for a modern business.

This slow, buggy app has one of the worst search and browse interfaces that I have seen in all of e-commerce. Search is fuzzy by default with no way to enable an actual keyword search or search only sale items. Results are cluttered with items that are unavailable in-store or online, with no apparent way to remove them. Filtering, sorting, and viewing options are all very limited. Customer service via chat is rude & unprofessional and would rather end the chat than admit an error and apologize.

I can usually scroll for books but when it's time to sign in to my account it fails constantly. It's so rare for me to be able to sign in that I don't bother. I have to order through the website (on a computer, mobile site sometimes has formatting issues) or go into the store and order from the help desk. Can you all do an overhaul to fix this, please? *Not a new problem. It's been the same situation for years.*
