## Barnes & Noble Reviews in United States

### *---- "Terrible"
This app is horrendous. It’s shocking that a large company like Barnes and Noble would allow the release of an app that is so slow, glitchy, laggy and generally unreliable and ultimately unusable. It should not have passed the first round of UAT. When customers turn to the website on the browser instead of using the app, you know you’ve failed as a developer. Please fix this - your main competitor is still Amazon. I want to support B&N but you’re really testing my patience with this app. What are we even doing here???
-- dtg2007, 2025-01-08

### **--- "Freezes"
Desperately needs an update to make the app run smoother. Is borderline unusable since it freezes or refuses to load your search results
-- DCull, 2025-01-08

### *---- "Useless - Unable to Login"
I’ve been a Barnes & Noble Member for many years. I have used the app for a while but I noticed about 6 months ago or so, that I was logged out of my account in the app.

I tried logging back in and it tries to load but repeatedly comes up with a an Error pop-up and unceremoniously takes me right back to the login screen.

I have tried everything…deleting the Barnes & Noble app then reboot my iPhone, and re-download the app. I have even changed my password, did not fix the issue. 

I got the iPhone 16 Pro Max (an upgrade from the 12 Pro Max I was using). I absolutely LOVE my new iPhone and what it can do but I absolutely HATE the Barnes & Noble app, since there has been absolutely no way for me to login to my account via the app.

Barnes & Noble - absolutely shame on you to have such a useless app that prior to this issue was absolutely wonderful.

UPDATE the Barnes & Noble app with a fix to the inability to login!!! 🤬
-- violette-rose, 2025-01-07

### *---- "Useless"
Cannot log in. Keep loading.
-- SummerMulan, 2025-01-06

### *---- "Not Worth Downloading In Its Current State"
The app works maybe 20% of the time. Or will constantly kick me out of the app, and when I sign back in I receive a notification that the cart is empty and sends me into a boot loop. 

I have deleted multiple times to see if that would fix the first but sadly it hasn’t. 

I pay you for a premium subscription and this is not a premium experience. You as a large corporation need to put funds into making a better app.
-- GINGRnJEW, 2025-01-06

### *---- "Zero stars"
My daughter and I just put this app on my iPhone yesterday.  It just freezes up and we can’t do anything on it.  So far, it’s completely useless.
-- Just me Kim, 2025-01-05

### *---- "Never works"
The app never works, constantly having issues signing in. It doesn’t recognize passwords, it does not do the Face ID well. It’s like the website and app do not communicate. Really disappointing, since the site advertises the app so heavily. Lazy
-- fckinannoyed, 2025-01-05

### *---- "There's more bugs on here than there were in A Bug's Life."
I only downloaded this app to make use of the wishlist and see any rewards I earn. The wishlist is bugged  out as to be unusable. It will not let me type in anything to search for a specific book. If anything, it locks the keyboard in place so you can't even go back to a different tab. Then, when I look up the information for a book that I may be interested in, the screen freezes and locks up. I feel like I'm on dial-up with how slow it takes to get the book overviews to load up. B&N, you are a multimillion dollar company, you can afford to have a working app.
-- CharlieGirl1221, 2025-01-04

### *---- "So many glitches"
I can never log into the app. I have to always just go on the web browser to use my Barnes & Noble. It continuously logs you out and then tells you that you’re logged in and then kicks you right out.
-- JFISHER90, 2025-01-04

### *---- "Redo the app"
As an avid book reader, this app would be so helpful. But the app doesn’t work well anymore. Its freezing, glitching, etc. they need to redo the app
-- Brittanyshof, 2025-01-04

### *---- "App doesn’t work"
The app just clocks and won’t let me log in with my password or Face ID. It worked fine for about a month, but now I can’t access my account or search for books to buy. I’ve restarted my phone and deleted and reinstalled the app, but the problem remains. Really bad in 2025 to have this type of technology problem.
-- #1 AFOL, 2025-01-04

### *---- "Increasingly Disappointing"
Every time I open this app it gets a little worse. Load times just tapping on a book are incredibly long. Pretty please move money to the fix-this-app fund. Use the browser, it’s much less frustrating.
-- @wazzzupp21, 2025-01-04

### *---- "Broken app"
It won’t let you login. It just gives loading forever
-- Nolancinephile, 2025-01-04

### *---- "THE WORST!"
This app is so awful! I can’t order and pay with my gift card because the app won’t load once you’ve entered the gift card information! Website is exactly the same- I had to actually drive to the store and order the books I wanted to pay with my gift card! God awful
-- livdemm2003, 2025-01-03

### *---- "Impossible to log in"
The app will either keep loading and not even let me log in, or it will log in for a second then kick me right back out to the login screen. Every time I try to use it, it is a very frustrating user experience, and I just end up having to use the desktop site.
-- Dianacf, 2025-01-03

### *---- "Trash"
Use the website instead. Every time I try to add a payment method the screen goes blank and I have to exit. It still doesn’t work.
-- skye 🌠, 2025-01-03

### *---- "App never works"
This app never works and will never keep my signed in. Most of the time I just have to use the browser
-- idccxx, 2025-01-02

### *---- "!!!"
This app is so slow!!!!!!! It makes me so mad!!!!!!
-- Idkx300, 2025-01-02

### **--- "Buggy"
I often encounter bugs and crashes when I try to use the app. Currently, the member sign in page is frozen and won’t load or pull up a keyboard to allow me to log in. It’s very frustrating because there are several books I’d like to order but may end up buying from Amazon instead.
-- Teen Or, 2025-01-02

### *---- "Needs Help"
I am logged out every time I open the app, and even when I manage to get into my account (which it rarely lets me in one try), the app can’t handle searches or anything of the sort and immediately crashes. Literally the worst app.
