Multiple Kobo Accounts on the Vox?

LolaJay · 02-09-2012, 09:03 AM

Just wondering how this might work. I have my Kobo account set up on my Vox, been buying and downloading books no problem. However, my hubby has an account too and we'd like to share the Vox. Can we download to the same device from 2 different accounts? Would this set up multiple library shelves?

Thanks!

Basically the way you can do it, is switching user accounts in the Kobo app. It'll load each library separate from one another - so he'd have his shelves, and you have yours.

you can also switch in the settings menu of the Vox itself by going to settings, Kobo eReader settings, Set up Kobo reader and signing in with the correct user...

I tried going through the Kobo app but that didn't work, although I did it on my desktop, not on the Vox itself... will give it a whirl and see what happens.

Thanks for the input!
