BTW, this is the announcement email I received from Barnes & Noble on April 1st...

Functionality Change on the
B&N NOOK Android App
As a result of Google app store policy changes, you will no longer be able to make purchases of digital content in the B&N NOOK Android app, including in the app on NOOK 10" HD Tablet Designed with Lenovo. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience.
As an alternative, digital content can be purchased on BN.com via your web browser or on a NOOK eReader. Items purchased on BN.com and NOOK eReaders will synchronize across your other devices, including any with the B&N NOOK Android app and NOOK 10" HD Tablet Designed with Lenovo, allowing easy access to your library of eBooks and Audiobooks anytime, anywhere.
To help you keep track of your picks, items added to your Wishlist on B&N NOOK apps and NOOK devices seamlessly carry over to BN.com for later purchasing.
We appreciate your loyalty and apologize for this change to the B&N NOOK Android app functionality that follows Google app store policy changes. For additional details, please visit here.
Thank you for understanding.
The Barnes & Noble NOOK Team

Purchasing NOOK Content on Android Devices
As of April 4, 2022, with the release of NOOK Software Version 6.1, the ability to purchase has been removed from the Barnes & Noble NOOK App for Android and the NOOK HD 10” Designed with Lenovo.
Digital content purchases can be made on BN.com using the account registered to your NOOK account, which will then sync to your Library. Additionally, you can add books to your Wishlist from the app, which will sync with your Wishlist on BN.com so you can remember and purchase your favorites easily.
If your app has not updated, you will be able to continue purchasing through the app. However, once you install the update, you will not be able to roll back to the previous version.
This update does not affect any NOOK devices other than the NOOK HD 10” Designed with Lenovo.

So, apparently, one of the "work-arounds" is to NOT update your Nook App.
