App loads on phone not nook

[harleydude]

Sorry if this has been answered but I didnt see it in the search. I try loding an app and it either does not load because it doesnt recognize the nook as a phone or it installs the app on my droid phone. Is there a fix or am I missing something?

You are missing the fact that the Nook Tablet is not a full Android slate.  The only Apps that will reliably function on the Nook are those purchased or downloaded from the Barnes & Noble App Store.

Are you trying to load the app directly from the web? If so, no it probably won't install, but many of those apps made for a phone will sideload fine if you can get someone to make the apk available to you for sideloading. This is all assuming the Nook is rooted.
