: Since when? It didn’t used to be that way.
Please stay connected.Īldrin: Thanks for waiting! Are you using Windows 8.1?Īldrin: Please be advised that our NOOK for Windows is only available to Windows 8.1. Would that be fine?Īldrin: I will get back to you as fast as I can. Let me do my best to assist you with your concern.Īldrin: I need to place you on hold for 2-3 minutes while I check on this. Hang tight while I review the conversationĪldrin: I am sorry to learn if you are unable to download our NOOK for Windows. Yet more proof that Nook is anti-consumer and jumping into their ecosystem is not a good idea.Īldrin: Hi, I am Aldrin.
Pretty rotten of them to not only do that but also not communicate it to their users. I was curious after reading this and jumped in the BN chat. Hopefully this is just a temporary removal but with Barnes and Noble you never know what to expect. This is just the latest in a long list of things that Barnes and Noble has done to estrange Nook customers, from partitioning storage space on Nooks to limit sideloaded content to removing the ability to download purchased ebooks for backup. But the Nook Windows app is no longer available so what are they talking about? On the product pages for Nook books it says they are compatible with Nook for PC, and their mobile apps page still advertises the Nook app for PC on the Windows Store. At this point they are outright lying to customers.
The worst part is Barnes and Noble is still claiming that Nook books are supported on Windows computers, but that clearly is not true. The Nook for PC app has been unavailable for at least the past week and a half now. Apparently the app still works if you already have it installed, so maybe they just took the app down temporarily to fix something, but considering B&N’s past behavior it’s hard to give them the benefit of the doubt.
