Part 3. Epubor Nook Converter Tutorial
In the Foreword:
As of 11/29/2023, the Nook Windows app is no longer available for book downloads. However, B&N still provides Nook apps for Android and iOS devices. It appears that the previously effective solution to decrypt Nook books downloaded via the Nook Windows app is no longer viable.
Hence, the sole alternative for removing DRM from Nook books is by utilizing an Android Emulator. Downloading Nook books via the Nook Android app on this platform allows Epubor Nook Converter to seamlessly decrypt and convert all of them effortlessly.
Step 1Download a User-friendly Android Emulator onto Your Computer
Android Studio is the official integrated development environment (IDE) for Android app development. It is designed to streamline the process of creating, testing, and deploying Android applications. Android Studio is the preferred choice for Android developers, and it's freely available for download and use.
Step 2Set up a Virtual Device Manager
After successfully installing the Android Studio emulator, follow these steps:
1. Launch the Android Studio emulator.
2. Click on "More Actions" > "Create Virtual Manager" > "Create virtual device".
6. Launch the Android virtual device by clicking the triangle icon.
Step 3Install NOOK for Android on Android Studio Emulator
Drag and drop the Nook Android APK onto the virtual device interface, and patiently wait for the installation process to finish.
Afterward, swipe the screen upwards to find the Nook app. Subsequently, click on the Nook app icon to launch the program.
Step 4Download your Nook Books
Open the Nook app on the Android Studio emulator, and use your Nook credentials to sign in to your Nook account. Following that, click the downward arrow to download ebooks and audiobooks from your Nook library.
Step 5Remove DRM from Nook Books
1Enter Nook Credentials in Epubor Nook Converter
Users are required to input their Nook credentials into Epubor Nook Converter. This step generates a key for decrypting Nook books. To do so, click on the user icon in the upper right corner and enter the nook accunt and password.
2Sync Downloaded Nook Books
After successfully downloading all Nook books in the Android Studio emulator, you can easily track the number of downloaded books. Navigate to the "ALL TITLES" category and click "Only show downloaded items" to filter the downloaded Nook books.
Once finished, run Epubor Nook Converter, and select "Refresh" to synchronize all downloaded Nook books with the Epubor Nook Converter library.
3Remove DRM
Firstly, choose the NOOK books you want to remove DRM from. Secondly, drag and drop the selected books into the main window of the Nook Converter. Thirdly, click "Start Conversion" to initiate the DRM removal process.
The conversion process is swift, providing DRM-free files promptly:
- Nook ebooks will be saved in EPUB format.
- Nook audiobook will be saved as individual MP3 files, each split by chapters.
You can locate the converted DRM-free Nook books by clicking "Open" at the top of the Nook Converter.
At the end, we've also created a video tutorial to guide you through the entire process.

I had this same exact issue (I got an 'Uh-Oh' connection error when logging into my Nook account from the Nook app within the emulator).
Turns out it was my work laptop (VPN) that was blocking my computer from communicating info over the Android emulator.
I tried it on a different computer (personal/home use) and it worked just fine.
Epubor Ultimate
I agree with the posters who comment that Epubor Ultimate was bought and now is pretty much heading towards a dead end because of the selling of separate apps to do what Ultimate used to do. I also think that those who bought Ultimate should be getting some type of better offer for the other software for Nook instead of the software becoming obsolete and having to pay again for software to do what Ultimate has done for a long time. Secondly since I'm still trying to use Ultimate, the file locations for LDPlayer are not where I've found the files being downloaded which has been frustrating. I think that all of these changes could have been handled better and could have been much more customer friendly for those of us who have been invested in Epubor Ultimate for many years.
I have been trying to use these instructions all day with great difficulty..
Initially, I loaded the Android Studio and I got the initial screens you showed. I selected the only option on the device definition which was a Pixel 7, but then I got very lost. Where I ended up was with a virtual phone on my screen that wouldn't allow the nook app to be downloaded because the virtual device was not in the permissible list. What the heck! I am not a very techie person, so this method we have to use now is very foreign to me. I have android files which I downloaded to a microSD card from Nook. Why won't these work as it seems the only function of this whole Android Studio thing is to get a the files. Cn you help me? I first purchased the lifetime Epubor Ultimate Lifetime License before I found out it no longer works with Nook books. Today I bought the Nook DRM Remover, but I am now stuck. Help!
The version of the Nook app is 6.6.2.14
The B&N password currently in use is not the same password as was used when these books were bought, if that helps (I can revert to an earlier password if needed).
