Nook iphone app and epub books

lorraineg57 · 01-21-2011, 09:29 AM

I "borrowed" books from the Philadelphia Library in Epub format.

I also have the Nook app on my iphone. While I'm able to pick up the iphone and automatically pick up reading where I left off on the the nook with books I've purchased from B&N, I can't seem to locate the Epub books on the iphone app? There doesn't seem to be access to "my documents".

Am I missing something or is this just not possible? Also, even with B&N books, the nook app on iphone doesn't seem to always "update". Sometimes I access the app and it picks up exactly where I left off on the nook (pagewise) and other times it doesn't.

TIA,
Lorraine

I only had the Nook app on my BB for a day because I didn't think you could use it for non B&N books. I didn't really play around with it though, so I could have missed something.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I have had issues syncing between the Nook app & my NC. I don't think the Nook app does side-loaded books. To read your library books on your iPhone, I suggest either Overdrive Media Console or Bluefire. Both are free apps. The Overdrive app is very basic. The Bluefire app has more features.
