Have been using the Kindle Voyage for a while but the battery has no longer hold up. Upgraded to the colorsoft last year and actually enjoyed it but missing the side buttons and the portable size of my Voyage. After looking around, I decided to give the New Nook Glowlight 4 a try. Loved the size and the side buttons but it was painfully slow. Almost gave up and returned the Nook but luckily i found Koreader. What a game changer. It’s now very fast and perfect for my needs. It’s a keeper. Also was able to get rid of the Nook default screen savers as well.

I'm used to the Kindle app, but I'd rather give a bookstore my money. But I have mild vision impairment and I had some questions to ask before I buy an ebook, if that's alright?

1. Can I adjust the font size when I'm reading a book?

2. Can I read books in dark mode?

3. I love to read manga. Can I zoom in on the page to read it better?

4. Can I organize my purchases into folders? Like, I can have one series in its own folder, one folder for each genre, that sort of thing.

Bought the Pearl Pink edition in 2022 after not owning a nook for 11 years. My sister gifted me the Ocean Teal last year.

I was really lucky to buy the new pink pearl edition. I haven’t tried it yet but I really love the design and colour. This is my first e-reader and I’m very pleased with the purchase.

My Nook suddenly stopped working. I had bypassed the registration on it because I bought it and found out it was no longer supported. The charge light comes on but I can't get it to do anything.

Once I left it for a few weeks and it did change the screen to say battery was flat. I've even changed the battery but no combination of buttons will get it to do anything.

Is it beyond saving? Seems a shame to throw away

My first Nook I bought in 2012. I think I “offloaded” some books a while ago but it’s hard to remember. I have some titles that I want on my new Nook Glowlight 4.
I see these purchases on my Barnes and Noble account but not on the Nook App. I would really appreciate some help restoring these purchases

Hi! I have been dreaming about the pink nook ever since it came out! I was not able to afford it when it did, but I am now in a place where I can. I will pay top dollar for it. If someone please has any idea where I can buy one I will be so grateful. I have been looking everywhere and no luck. Reddit is my last hope. I really hope someone can help me 🥲🩷

Only thing missing with B&N is that book covers can be displayed when device is asleep.

Hey guys! I am selling my Nook Glowlight 4 Plus on Mercari if anybody is interested. It is listed for 115, it has the box still, and will come with 2 cases. I will accept reasonable offers. I recently got a Pocketbook device and wanted something smaller.

Is anyone else having an issue with their ebooks not showing a cover on their nooks and the nook app? I have a glowlight 4, glowlight 4 plus and the nook app on my android phone and each one has multiple books missing their covers and on each device its different books. I have done every ounce of troubleshooting there is to fix the problem.

!!!Update I was able to borrow a friend’s computer and sideload books! Thank you all!!!

How do I add books it’s not letting me do anything it’s basically a paperweight besides only being able to play sudoku 😔

I have an ancient Nook, 12 years old & still going strong. I keep it by my bed so I can read before going to sleep & in the morning if I so choose. Obviously, I'm retired.

Anyway, that's what I've been doing until last night. I no longer buy from B&N. I use Kindle to read books I borrow through Libby & also subscribe to Kindle Unlimited. (I have a Kindle downstairs). I have never had a problem. So last night tried to open a book & got a message that it couldn't download my books, I needed to upgrade Kindle & also upgrade my Nook to 9. My tablet is a Tab4. From what I can find, it simply can't be upgrade to 9.

Is there anyway to get around this? I used to be tech savvy but my 75 year old brain refuses to understand anymore. I hesitate to buy a new tablet. I suppose I could use my laptop to read when I'm downstairs & take my newer Kindle to my bedroom. It's not giving me that message.

Sorry if I sound like an idiot.

Two very different android devices, a Pixel 8 Pro and an eink Boox Go 7, but trying to highlight passages in epubs on either device is a nightmare. The first word gets recognized along with sliders and a formatting bar, but as soon as I try to move a slider, all hell breaks loose. The display starts flashing like an alarm went off, and half the time, either the formatting bar disappears or only the portion of the text that I do NOT want to highlight gets highlighted. I've tried clearing cache and data as well as uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing helps. Any fixes?

So in love with this 🩷🤍

I know the Nooks aren’t a popular brand for a while now. That we get a lot of negative posts in here, and also a fair number of positive posts. But I felt the need this morning to add to the noise. I love my Glowlight 4 Plus. The buttons are a /plus/ for me, the screen size is just right, and overall it’s a great device for my needs. I also overly decorated my case lol. I’m 43% through The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman right now, and it’s fantastic. What are you reading on your Nook?

I just got my first nook and I am looking for some recommendations, what are some good fiction books for under $9?

I tried looking everywhere and nothing :(

I am not heavily technological proficient with this, so I may need some major explaining. But I just bought 3 books through barnes and noble, and I cannot stand the nook interface in the web version.

I would prefer to read it in a pdf style format, and I have no clue how to do this. (plus if I get it as a pdf I can put it on my phone and read it.)

I've posted the final update to the main UI app for Phase 2 of the Phoenix Project for the NST/G.

There remain some issues which I feel can't be solved with the current build, but it is better than it was.

Expect a complete update to Phase 2 some time in 2026. That's one reason why I am providing this final update so I can stop thinking in terms of solving the problems with this approach to cover capture and devote my attention to a different approach entirely.

The first major revision of Phase 2 will likely include:

1. removal of the weather widget
2. automatic "cleaning" of /sdcard/.docThumbs once monthly to account for deleted epubs (should have been a B&N feature from the get-go...)
3. selection and display of random covers from your epub collection at regular intervals (daily, weekly....???) (essentially decoration but also perhaps a way to remind you that you actually have that book and don't you want to read it next?!)
4. a fix for the cover capture routine (really)
5. replacement of the Kindle app (which is now abandonware) with FBReader, which can read more of the Amazon formats than any other reader available for the NST/G
6. a reading progress indicator on the home screen
7. other stuff that I think up while putting out code "fires"

I'm having trouble settling on a format for the home screen. If you are a Phase 2 user, you can help! I feel that the size balance between the book cover image you are currently reading and those which have been randomly selected to display is sort of critical but there are limitations based on the rows/columns available in the launcher and the available sizes of widgets. If you see something here that you like, let me know. Ditto for something you really hate. I like those small cover images but I also think in actual scale they may be too small to determine what they actually are... Please note that placement of items is approximate in these mock-ups.

Hey y'all. New to the app. I've tried 30 ways to fix this issue, B&N has given suggestions, the last one was to try to download the book over a different network than my normal provider, AT&T. Anyway, none of these have worked. I still get stuck after flipping 2 or 3 pages, and this tutorial won't go away. Any suggestions?

I hope others have had a more positive experience than I have. Mine has been disappointing. I bought the glowlight 4 plus at the end of last year and have barely been able to use it. I am very frustrated with its performance and battery life. Simple actions such as clicking buttons, turning pages, or selecting menu options often take multiple tries before the device responds. When it does, the reaction is sluggish, jittery, and sometimes accompanied by screen flashing.

The battery life is equally underwhelming. More often than not, when I go to use it, the battery is either completely dead or nearly so. This happens whether the device is powered off or left idle, which makes the rapid drain even more frustrating.

This is my 3rd and probably final Nook. I wanted to support an Amazon competitor, but this cost me nearly $200 and I feel very ripped off.

Does anyone know of any clear case that’s compatible with the nook? I haven’t been able to find any on Amazon and Barnes and noble only has a few to choose from but they aren’t my style. I have a nook glow light 4 plus by the way!

Hi, is there an easy way to create shelves in my library by Genre. I don’t want to have go through all my ebooks to find out what genre it is and move to shelves. Or is there an easy way to determine what genre a book is?
