Barnes & Noble NOOK Customer Insights

1. Now all of my ebooks are missing!Since the recent 'improvement' when I try to rearrange items in my library, the app syncs itself EVERY time I open a different book and goes back to the first position.

2. I described the issue clearly - fix it.All books are audible now at 25.00 dollars each book.

3. There is no way to remove the title of the book from the top of the page which takes up a lot of space while reading.

4. In order to get newly purchased books to download in my library, I have to uninstall and reinstall.

5. I'm highly disappointed with barnes and nobles.Was really hoping that the big fixes meant I could sideload my library into my new Android phone, but I'm still experiencing issues.

6. For those of us who are low income, the price for an audible book puts it out reach.

7. Now I struggle to use it and can only open a non-Nook book by opening the file directly from my folder.

8. I can afford 7.99 but not 25.00 dollars for the same book in audible format.

9. Can't adjust to time left in book.

10. Apart from the price there are a lot of people who prefer to actually read a book.

11. It constantly reverts to a previous pace in the book, closes itself, or won't play at all.
