This is the stock NOOK app reader from the NOOK branded Galaxy Tab 4. Tested on NOOK HD running CM11. Good for those who miss the stock reader app. The Galaxy Tab 4 version is superior to the stock HD version.

Thanks for the app. However, when I try to launch a kids book from the app it doesn't load. Any idea what we would need from a Samsung tab to get that working?

I don't know the answer on how to get the kids books working, but I suspect the issue is related to the fact that the kids books are not really books at all. They are specialty apps that are designed to interface with the nook reader. That is what allows them to be interactive. I suspect there is an extra service that is missing that allows those apps to run.

Hmmmm...I wonder if I went to Barnes and Noble and ran a kids book on the tablet it would give me insight on what apk is missing.

I just discovered you can now get the Nook reader app 4.0 directly from the Play Store. Everything works including the kids books.

Edit: Play Store says the app is not compatible with the HD/HD+ and will not allow installation. But it works fine on the HD/HD+ on CM. The file (37MB) is too large to attach here directly so I uploaded it to my Dev-Host server account here:

Just install it manually.
