so much for sync across devices
OK so how about open in browser- well that works - another poor reader interface though - , but it opens at page 1. another fail for sync across devices. the browser oversrive screens has no font fize, margens etc options at all.

i emailed overdrive but I doubt they will give a good ecxplanation
anyone here know if this is expected behaviour ?
Sorry, but there are no claims of syncing anything outside the Kobo ecosystem. The reading status is synced to other Kobo devices and apps, not to OD or Libby or anything else.

I don't know about the ADE problem. The few times I have borrowed a book through my Aura ONE, the book was downloadable via ADE. But, I don't use the library and mainly did this to see how it works.
