Not great for NYT digital replica
PROS: Can buy single issues of NYT. CONS: Formatting is wonky for reading supplements included with digital replica. Example: NYT Sunday Magazine and Book Review have a square page format but are compressed to fit the elongated newspaper page size, making all text and photos compressed. Content is sometimes incomplete—one Sunday edition included a Book Review section that was from two weeks prior. Possibly a NYT issue, not B&N, but no one in either Customer Service dept. is interested in fixing these problems.

I want to completely switch from kindle to nook but..
Apparently I can’t side load pdfs into the nook app. From shipping to limited app, Barnes and Noble shoots themselves in the foot every opportunity at getting new customers. It took me 2 and half weeks with expedited shipping to get a dungeons and dragons game I ordered from them. Give me a reason to spend with you ffs. I’m tired of giving Amazon money.

Works Well But…
I enjoy listening to the Audiobooks and the access to smaller independently published authors e-books and that I get to collect more stamps through this app for my B&N account. But I have issues with the way titles are displayed in the search preview and in the information page of a book. When the title is longer than the allowed space there is no way to see the entire title without buying, or adding to the wishlist. There should be a way to expand the title in order to have the proper information (eg. series’ orders) it would significantly improve the users experience looking for books.

Confusing
I only have one magazine I subscribed to for the nook. And I cannot easily know whether the new addition is out I have no clue. This is the most confusing app I’ve ever encountered. God, I wish Amazon still had TV Guide for Kindle.
More processing power
I’ll start by saying I probably test the limits of this app, 5000+ books and several hundred files and yes everything is downloaded because I’ve been burned multiple times when the app craps out and doesn’t resolve for days. But I feel like having an app that can run a search, load downloaded content, assign or remove something from a shelf shouldn’t cause the app to freeze up on every other action and that’s what is happening constantly. Please fix.
