I have an iPhone and the ereader just crashes. If bn wants us to buy the nook just say so and dump this app. Thank goodness I didn't spend money on books for this reader.

Will not load

Barnes & Noble needs to fix this app. It worked at first but now it will not load and keeps crashing. This is a frustrating problem.

Try reinstalling the app

Version: 1.1.1
I installed the e-reader back in sept or oct and had no problems until the day after Christmas. I read others reviews and someone suggested removing the app from my phone and reinstalling...it worked! You do not lose your books when you uninstall so give it a shot you might be surprised. Kimberly

Deal killer prices

Kindle could go to school on this app - very good design. But I'll never use it until the book prices come down out of fantasy land.

B&N App doesn't work  
By: Wretched Reader - Jan 8, 2010
Version: 1.1.1
Fun while it did, but won't launch again if you leave the app while reading. I've got a bunch of books I can't get to. Phooey.Tried the fix suggested, and it barely worked once, then went back to crashing. Very sad that B&N won't be more candid and available - customer service definitely not helpful.

Used to work well, now like so many other people it spins and spins and then crashes out. Tried the fix of deleting it and fully shutting down the iPhone and it worked, the first time, now is back to crashing. Typical b&n.

Version 1.0 : Fine. Version 1.1.1 : Crap.  
By: ac72 - Jan 8, 2010
Version: 1.1.1
If you've got a first-gen iPhone, I'd advise against upgrading (or downloading this at all). I installed ver 1.0, bought two books from B&N, read the first, started to read the second...and got a message saying that this particular book required the upgraded version to read. Which, stupid, but whatever. Installed the upgrade, and now it won't launch at all. Startup screen, spin spin spin, crashes out back to my main iPhone screen. Ever so glad I spent ten bucks on a book I can't read. This doesn't give me much confidence in your Nook, B&N.

B&N Should Be Ashamed  
By: MissyGT - Jan 8, 2010

The people at B&N should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this app to remain available and for allowing people to spend money on books they cannot read. Online customer service is either dense or pretending not to understand the problem. I waited 45 minutes to talk to a customer service rep before I gave up. B&N, why allow something like this to tarnish your otherwise fine reputation.

Maybe Only for iPhone and iPod touch

This is great! I downloaded the app and it works just fine! I read the other reviews and was afraid until i saw 2 that actually said it worked so i gave it a try and BAM!! So as to why it didn't work for the other majority here's my best guess:They didn't have an iPod TOUCH or and iPHONEIf you had either one of those it shouldn't be a problem cuz mine works just fine! I haven't put any books on it yet so i'll keep praying it doesn't crash.

B&N you dropped the ball

It just won't work on my 3G iphone. It just opens then CRASH!! I have bought a few e-books before knowing the crash problem and would love to read them!! What is odd it works great on my SO's iPhone 3GS. What's up B&N? The app e-reader works fine and so do a few other reader apps. Are you doing something? How about the e-books I have bought, give me my MONEY back? E-readers BEWARE!!!

POS  
By: enema jones - Jan 6, 2010

This thing is horrible. Did the authors decide one day it might be fun to write an apple app and just make it up as they went along? Because IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. I have a good mind to not honor the bn charges for a couple of ebooks I bought from barnes and noble, if this is the kind of crap they dish out.UPDATE -- it works now -- it threw up all over a couple of books I loaded but I kept starting it up and now it works. I don't know if this will help the developers any or not. It seems to die a horrible death when newly installed, and if the developers have their reader beyond this point it would be difficult for them to replicate the issue. My reader has been solid for several days now and I have bought a couple more books. No crashes, and it used to just spit me out to the screen with all the app icons, gleefully. Don't know of any reason for this. I have a second generation ipod touch updated to the latest firmware.

no good

I read two or three books and then the ap just quit. I have two unread books on it and I can't access them. I called the help line and waited 40 minutes before I gave up...jh

No Customer Service; Crash king  
By: BarryOToole - Jan 6, 2010
Version: 1.1.1
I bought 2 books to read with this app. Worked for a week and then, with the new update (1.1.1), fails to open. I wrote to B&N and Apple, and there has been no response from either. Save your money - don't buy this app. Kindle has not crashed on me yet; I got this app because I could share my books with 4 others. Now even I can't read myself!

Thanx for this great app. This concept is something to change anyone's life.

Thanks for the fix!

Thanks to the user that posted a fix to the constant crashes. If the app is always crashing, delete it and then completely shut down your iPhone. Turn the phone back on and then reinstall the app. That cured my constant crashes and I've been able to read two books ove the last few days with the app working as advertised. I like the B&N GUI much better than the Kindle app.The key is to shut off the phone after the delete... then reinstall.

Disappointed  
By: DrBrad - Jan 6, 2010

I really would like this to work. Have had the application since its release and has worked up until now. Now it tries to load and just crashes. I want to support Barnes and Noble but they should release an update very quickly to fix problems we are having or they will lose our support.

I want to give this ap more stars, but it keeps crashing on me! I like that I can have a book anywhere I go. I also like that I can quickly get a new book when I'm finished. But, I have had to uninstall and reinstall this ap twice now because it crashes. I can't find anything regarding this problem on the BN website. So for now, only 3 stars. It's great - when it works!

Version 1.1.2  
By: capt.br - Jan 5, 2010
Version: 1.1.1
Downloaded 1.1.2 as an upgrade from version 1.1.1. It keeps crashing on books that I downloaded after the upgrade. However, 1.1.2 does work with books that were downloaded before the upgrade. What a mess.I called B&N and their support contact told me that this is a known issue and is being worked on. No dates provided.
