NOOK HD e-readers are powered by Android. That means you can install ExpressVPN on your NOOK using the Google Play Store, making this procedure incredibly simple.

ExpressVPN makes no mention of the official requirements for NOOK devices. That said, as long as you have access to the Play Store, you should be able to download and install ExpressVPN.

And before we begin, know that NOOK tablets update automatically as long as you're connected to Wi-Fi, so you should be ready to jump into the installation procedure explained below.

How to Download and Install ExpressVPN on NOOK eReaders

Getting started with ExpressVPN on your NOOK device won't take more than a couple of minutes of your time. Here's what exactly you need to do:

1. Subscribe to ExpressVPN on your NOOK device using a Web browser.

2. After subscribing, tap "My Account" using the main menu on ExpressVPN's website and log in to your account. If asked for a verification code, copy it from your email inbox.
