Yuzu eReader FAQ
Is Yuzu eReader free?
Yes, Yuzu eReader is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Yuzu eReader legit?
⚠️ The Yuzu eReader app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
I am a senior at UCF, and I have been using Yuzu for some time. I like the fact that I have instant access to (most) of my ebooks for my semesters. Granted, some professors don’t offer materials that are reached through Yuzu, so we have to either use another app, or the web, or just buy a physical copy altogether.
With that said, the only real issue I have with Yuzu, is that when i use the split screen function on my iPad (I have the iPad Pro 13inch) the screen almost spams from white, to dark mode throughout the entire time i am using the app. On some occasions I have even had the screen on full screen on my iPad, and even opened on my phone, and one moment the screen will be entirely in dark mode, and a few moments later it will be in light mode.
The issue with this is one, aside from it being really annoying to the eye, it also closes and loads up a random page I wasn’t even on when it changes color. And another issue, is if i ever wanted to copy and past a passage, or an image, the lettering, or the picture would be in either white or black ink. Aside form that, I can’t really complain since at the end of the day im still able to keep up with my schoolwork with a click of a button. If this little issue was to be resolved for me, it be a 5/5 easily. Thanks for reading.
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE
I have been trying to get back into my account for days going back and forth with them over the phone. They keep hanging up with me and promising to send me an email to further assist me but I have yet to receive one. If you can, purchase your textbooks any other way they are useless. I may have just wasted money and have to go repurchase it somewhere else if I can’t get into my account soon.
Not even ready for Alpha release
When I discovered this app, I had hopes that it would provide a couple or three glaringly missing features from the browser based version of the e-books. What a disappointment. It only downloads the first page and nothing more. It is utterly useless.
You don’t own the books if you don’t use the app
You can’t download the book you paid for. You are stuck to read using this app.
Worst I’ve ever seen
Idk how B&N did it but they somehow acquired the test book I need for school, then exclusively put it on the worst app ever invented, truly impressive. I’m not sure how man 6 year olds from Bangladesh you hired to give you a 4.5 review but congrats.

First thing first, I don't expect perfection from anything in life esp. technology, also if I could live in B&N I honestly would & have loved them since I was little, still do, & I am a voracious reader. That being said B&N should be ashamed of themselves with the terrible customer service but esp. since they're like 85-90% about BOOKS and READING. The fact that the kindle & ibooks apps are SUPREMELY better with overall use & book formatting should honestly make B&N feel ashamed. I think what makes it even worse is that most of us use this app because of school & getting degrees is hard enough without your school e-reader frustrating you chapter, after chapter, after chapter. You're better than this B&N & us college students need AT LEAST paragraphs that don't split midsentence causing back & forth reading, WAY more font selections & definitely font sizes need a tweak. It's either too big or so small I end up squinting or squirming trying to read comfortably. Please someone with power to change this app read & truly consider mine & everyone else's suggestions. We're trying to help ourselves with studying & making it "easier" but that is difficult without someone doing something. End of rant; thanks to those who read it all.<3
Glitches, won’t delete highlights
Horrible app that constantly glitches, won’t delete highlights, the private feedback option doesn’t work either
Annoying
Difficult to flip to glossary can make studying less efficient. If you could label the bookmarks it would help.
Text book not loading after pg 4
It works when I go through black board but isn’t loading through the app 😒
Kills battery life on iPad
This app drains my iPad down to zero in a couple hours if I forget to close it.
