what I do now is checkout always with the libby app - NOT with the overdrive app, but logged in with my overdrive credentials, not with my library card; then an early return with libby on a different tablet works OK.[also FYI I tested and found that once I have completed checkout on tablet with libby, I am allowed to download a copy via ADE on PC also, but it has to be libby 1st, PC 2nd. the other way around is still problematic

so If I am at PC and get an " a hold has been auto checked out for you" email from overdrive, I wait until I am using the tablet to get it. It seems to be the case that its where you download from not where you checkout that matters, because most of my reading arrives via auto-checked out holds.

it took a far bit of trial and error to establish a process that works as above and that also syncs between libby installs

i rarely borrow audiobooks so I am not sure how easy/hard it is to early return those nowadays
