Nook App

With all the great deals on books available through Vyrso, I would love to read them on my Nook Color.

I have loaded the android app on my Nook, but when the library comes up, I can never get past all the books that begin with "A". Since my Nook is dependent on WiFi, an app that allows me to only load the books I want to just read would be great.

Any plans for a Nook app?

Tracy - First, welcome to the forums!

I am a bit confused. You write that you loaded the android app on your Nook, and then you ask if there are plans for a Nook app. I am neither a Nook nor Andriod user, but I am confused by your comments. Can you explain more?

When the library is loaded, can't you just type the name of the book you want?

I should let you know that the iOS app is much further along in development, including some library sorting features.

Tracy,

This search lists threads on using Nook to read Vyrso. Maybe they can help.

Thanks Alabama for the note.

My Nook Color has a tiny card that I loaded with the android system. However, it still requires WiFi.

Nook Color has it's own apps... So, one machine, two systems.

I don't think the WiFi part of the Nook is really designed for this because it is so slow. So paging thru a long list is not ideal.

I just tried opening the Vyrso App and typing in the name of a book and it crashed. Now it won't open the app at all.

It was my hope that there would be a way to read the books offline. The nook is perfect for that.

There is software that will convert PDF files for readability on the nook and I have loaded many things that way. I understand that Vyrso books are in Logos format, which I understand.

I was hoping to take advantage of the great sale prices on novels to read on my nook.

Tracy - You could try copy & paste.

I use the Logos app on the Nook Color. It works very well--that said, there are some shortcomings.

The Android app is less advanced than the iOS app--it is fairly new & features seem to initially offer via iOS, then Android.

Library navigation for large libraries is tedious. If you need to sync up the list of books, it is best to wait until that is done (a blue bar builds across the top of the screen when this happens). Browsing is possible, but you are much better off to just find what you want on the full version (PC or Mac), and then type that title into the mobile version's library search box.

You can download resources to read them offline. However, you have to do this one by one...and if you share Logos accounts on your mobile device, the Logos app will remove all downloaded books every time a different user signs into the Logos app (to ensure resource separation). When you are looking at a resource in the library, click on the green arrow to the right and you'll see the download option.

When you are offline and you go to the library, the only resources that will show up are those that you downloaded--I find this to be a much easier way of navigating the library (only seeing the subset that interests me).
