This is not a helpful post - just my experience....

I have had constant problems with Overdrive for a few years now, usually a Kobo reset fixes it but lately it is getting worse so I have no plans at this stage to reset the device just for Overdrive.

My latest issue is that if I try to borrow a book on my KA1 (4.30.18838) the error message says try to log into your library first. I think this is to make you test your library account before calling kobo support? When i log into Libby (I have 2 cards) it does not have that book. Just realised next time I should log into the library website to double check Libby....

About a year ago I pretty much gave up on using the device to borrow books and now download from the library onto my computer then load the book onto my device.

Unrelated to this thread - But W(why)TF are there 2 apps (in my case Overdrive and Libby) to use OverDoneItdrive?
