On a related note, it looks like I might owe the old Nook PC app an apology.

It might not be Google’s Material Design, but it nonetheless does look like it belongs in Windows 10. If you compare the photo here to the ones of the old PC app in my earlier review, you’ll note it looks a lot more polished by comparison. You can also left-click on words to highlight or annotate them. You can page forward and back using the scroll wheel, or right-click on it to bring up the menu bars with options to access various bookmarking, annotation, or formatting functions. Once you’ve chosen a book, it opens up a view of the text. You can also sideload your own EPUB files from directories on your computer. For example, clicking on “My Library: View All” opens a broader view of your library, where you can click on “All,” “Books,” or “My Files” to view different sections. Clicking on the title to any of these panes drills down into another screen with more options. Launching the app brings up a multi-paned page with access to your library, or you can scroll the screen to the right (with your finger, or your mouse scroll wheel) to access several panes of Nook Store shopping options.

(It calls itself “Nook for Windows 8 v1.9,” but it works just fine on Windows 10.) Downloading and installing it is just as simple as installing any Windows universal app.Īs with any universal Windows app, Nook will work with both PCs and Windows mobile devices, though since I don’t have a Windows mobile device I can only review how it looks on my desktop. As a result, I still have nearly 200 titles in my Barnes & Noble library, and I might as well be able to keep reading them.ĭownloading the app is simple enough: just click or tap on the Windows logo shopping bag on your status bar to open the Windows Store, then type “Nook” in the search box and it pops right up.
I’ve had mixed luck with Barnes & Noble’s e-books through the years, but I used to be a regular customer-early on I figured I might as well keep buying from Nook, since it already had (most of) the books I’d bought from eReader and Fictionwise. The last time I reviewed the Nook e-reader apps was all the way back in 2011, and a remarkable amount has changed since then. Given that we’re now in the age of Windows 10, it seemed like a good time to take a look at the Nook universal Windows app.
