Ratings and reviews

Love this! One improvement I'd like to see is the ability to widen just the space between columns, without changing the outside margins. Another (and perhaps more important) is the ability to swipe on the left side of the screen to turn the page, not just the right side. The Bluetooth page-turner I'm using post-surgery would probably work with this app if swipes worked properly. (It works with the Kindle app and others.)

Constantly having periodicals disappear from my account- issues that were paid for. Usually "fixing" the problem requires uninstalling the app then reinstalling it, which requires quite a bit of data to download my entire library again.. very frustrating, and I'm tired of it. Future purchases will most likely be through another book seller.

NOOK is a fantastic app. However, I think that the overall experience could be improved and polished. The purchase of ebooks and audio books should be available within the application and not require to login via the Barnes and Noble website. Please bring a more personalized and practical atmosphere to the application as well. Testing the application gives you a very 2010-ish vibe. A dark mode would be highly welcomed as well.
