On the Aura One, it appears but with the notation 'expired.' So lately I've read on the Forma.

My question: If I'd like to read a specific library book on the Aura One instead of the Forma, is there any way to do this? I tried downloading a book directly from within the Aura One and the software told me I had borrowed the book. But again, it appeared as 'expired' on the Aura One, but was complete and readable on the Forma.

Any insights into how Kobo handles this would be appreciated. I seem to have the Forma as the default library reader, but I have no idea how this occurred.
A bit odd. I just tested with my Forma and an Aura HD. Borrowed a library book and synced it to my Forma and no issues reading it. Synced the Aura HD and the library book showed up there and was showing the same 6 days to expiry as the Forma.
