I like being able to get on it and read whatever book that I want that is available also having the audiobooks available allows me to listen to far more books that I would by just reading them great application recommend it                 Great app
If they could fix the audiobook player to save your spot correctly instead of reverting back to the beginning of the part every time you reopen itthis would easily have 5 stars           Please fix
I love that Overdrive gives me access to my public librarys ecollection I love to read but have difficulty with books in print after a detached retina Audiobooks work awesomely with Overdrive Just remember to bookmark your progress after each listening session Thanks for a great app and bringing back books to my life                 Great App
I really like this app BUT it is no longer as accessible as it used to be The last 2 versions of the Overdrive app has lost some of its Voice Over capabilities In version 320 for overdrive app will read Return and Delete Cancel and confirm so that you can return a book early With the last 2 versions they have not put that capability back in and I have called them over the phone and advised them of this issue in May or June of 2015           VoiceOver doesnt work for versions 33 and up
I use Overdrive everyday would be lost without it The best update lately has been that it doesnt log me out every time I toggle to another app I like to look up reviews on other sites before borrowing a book now thats easier              247 access to Free books
PLEASE FIX THIS It looks like so many other reviews say the same thing And Ive had this review up for awhile Overdrive just isnt listening to us about this issue Unless you remember to place a bookmark will start some other arbitrary place           Will not remember your place
Boy weve come a long way baby Though a trip into the Library is still a fun thing to do w the kids I love being able to download and readlisten to my books without HAVING to go in It took me a little bit to get used to the interface but it works fine just not always intuitive until you know your way around Once you do it works great Never any issues Thank you Overdrive              Love being able to readlisten to library books
I Love this appI used it all the timeThey have the a lot of new books to read Just set back and enjoy reading your books What an excellent app                 Love Overdrive
This app is fantabulous Love it I was raised in the library and nothing has changed Download it now                 Read read and read
Although better than its competition I get tired of the navigation jumping ahead to the next part Then I have to go back and find my current position        Frustrating
Like the features but the amnesia forgets where I was between audiobook sessions renders it an exercise in frustration     Great potential but it loses my place in audiobooks
Easy to use intuitive controls                 Excellent
Wonderful                 Wonderful
I love this app Reading ebooksfor free The layout is amazing and its very userfriendly The one thing that needs to be fixed is returning books early I was unaware that you could return books early until I accidentally discovered that you can if you press and hold on a book This feature needs to be more obvious There have been times where I borrowed a book that I ended up not wanting a few days later but was stuck with the book for two weeks I felt guilty because I wasnt reading the book while the 50 people on hold were waiting for it Other than this feature that needs to be more obvious 1010 app                 Love but needs one fix
Finally we have an app that responds well to the user Design of the Website is adequate and serves all well Great App                 Finally
Thank you for this easy to use app                 Love love love this app
This App loses my place in books all the time It is incredibly annoying Other than that huge irritant it could be great Please fix this     Loses my place
I CANNOT READ ANYTHING It is stuck on the same book No matter how many times I try to reset the app or my phone the app is always stuck on the cover of the same book PLEASE FIX This app used to be great I have a 6 plus if that helps     Used to be great
I use it for audiobooks all the time                 Love it
Latest update has the app crashing long delays in accessing books Was great app until then I hope they fix it soon     Awful update 5 star before
I have used this for awhile now and have never encountered any difficulties I recommend it                 Works well for me
Since the update many things make the app I once loved so difficult 1latency for prolonged periods of time 2when title is added as a wish list item it continually adds it and displays across the top as a notification if item is deleted as a wish list item it just adds it back to the wish list and doesnt accept the delete request 3multiple force closes 4last played and bookmarks do not work appropriately 5titles read always show as recommended titles to read 6 selecting buttons within app are non responsive when entering app the continue reading displays but takes several minutes before it will display continue reading 11days remaining and continues with entrance into the app It would be nice to know for audio books how long the book is or how many parts prior to download and or checkout     Update gone wrong
Downloaded an EPUB ebook Had to thoroughly search the website to find out how to return it The return directions tell me to download a completely separate app why cant I just return it from the website and so I did The app directions said I had to simply press and hold the books title for return options to appear They didnt Maybe I was pressing and holding wrong I deleted the app and reinstalled it Of course I need my Overdrive login credentials and my librarys login credentials to do this which arent even the same Then it still wouldnt let me return the book I had to call my library and speak to someone there who forcereturned it for me Maybe I need six years of engineering school to figure this one out but returning an ebook shouldnt take hours This is one of the most nonintuitive apps Ive ever used Stupid worthless and deleted Never using this again     Worthless
One of my favorite apps Works great for checking out books from the library It would be near perfect if they could get the sync between devices to actually work I have a vague recollection of it working once or twice a year or so ago but since then have tried so many times with total failure              Sync doesnt work but still a great app
The new format youve come up with is pretty but not as functional as the old format Its requiring some annoying adjustments I hate the new selection process of turning the wheel having to say done having everything I select take more time to process and was happy with your old selection process It was refreshing to not to have to use the Apple wheel format I congratulated you on the superior functionality of your old design Now I guess youve caved to the Apple format I am using an iPhone and using your new format is tedious Whats with having to hit the X at the bottom of the screen before being allowed to return to the previous page An extra step is neither appreciated nor functional When putting a book on hold I had to submit my email address twice It used to appear automatically Tedious I put a book on hold and wanted to return to the filtered list I had chosen for searching I hit your continue button and went to a search page where all my filters were gone I quit in disgust Would love to discuss the new look with you           Needs considerable work
The latest update no longer allows the user to enter the library in the app It switches to safari where I choose my books then tell it to download That switches me back to Overdrive Overdrive crashes a few times before opening then I have to tell it to download the books I want I have to do this for each and every book To download the next wanted book I have to go back to safari and tell it to download What used to take 12 minutes per book takes 36 minutes each This is frustrating and time consuming The free borrowed book is now costing time Double and triple the time before due to the new crashing The app is a great one and I hope they fix this issue Until then I am reading many less books           Latest changes are not great
I use almost daily its so nice to be able to read books from the library and never have to leave home                 Love it
This has to be the best app I have in my Iphone As with all the apps out there you have to formalize your self w the app before your can navigate comfortably other than that I love this app I recommend it to book lover And audiobook lover too Its free who does like free                 Overdrive app
Awesome great selection Wish it can increase in choices              Room for improvement
I use this app quite a bit and often have 35 books out on loan My biggest source of remorse about Overdrive is that my books are stuck on the device I download them in even though I have the app on multiple devices That improvement would be great I could read on any device no matter where I left off or what device I started on              Easy to read a lot hard to read across devices
This app was ok until the recent update It had some bugs but I tolerated them Since the update overdrive on both my phone and iPad has repeatedly crashed First it wouldnt open Reinstalled Now it just refuses to download anything I have reinstalled five times at this point wasted many many hours and still it crashes duplicates the library downloads only parts of audio books or wont download anything at all What a mess Please put it back to the previous version At a least it worked     Piece of junk
I can now listen to audiobooks in the car without having to change discs Using Overdrive with Bluetooth is the best I Just download audiobooks from the library onto my phone Love it                 Love it
Love Overdrive One spot for improving is when you are browsing for books You can arrange search alphabetically by author title etc but you have to start at one end or the other of the alphabet and cannot select a page other than 12 or 3 There should be a way to enter a page number so you might be able to view books or authors in the middle of the alphabet              Love library books
I use OVerdrive on my IPhone and I love it My husband reads on his IPad and in helping him get started w downloading books the interface is much more user intuitive on the iPhone I also wonder if the difficulties earlier reviewers reported arent due to their devices other types of phones or tablets Re the need to redownload 500 books your library is VeRy generous I can only download 10 at a time I do notice improvement differences booktobook re the bookmark saving my place and wonder if its related to fully backing out of the App I do have two requests I browse frequently saving books on my Wish list I would love to have a button go to Top go to Bottom of the browse page when I go back Its not hard to scroll down again just an annoyance 2nd request please put the rating stars with the return function So far it seems I only find it when Im checking the book out Ok a 3rd request is there a way to download to one device then access from my others I would be overjoyed to be able to pick up my tablet to read from time to time Currently the books downloaded on my tablet must be read on my tablet so when I need to travel those books get left behind Keep up the good work                 Love Overdrive
I listen to library books and this app makes it very easy to do so Its not quite as intuitive as I would like but its still better than having to burn CDs to download books to my phone              Convenient App
As a truck driver this app is great No more hoping the library will be open when I get in Also very easy to search for available titles                 Great app
I love Overdrives ereader but the audiobook player is awful It doesnt consistently hold the place you left off on so when you return to the app to continue listening to your book many frustrated minutes are used up in retrieving your lost place Come on Overdrive fix it        Audiobook Player
Really good app for a reader and mp3 book player                 Good app
I like that it supports both MP3 audiobooks and ebooks              Its good for what it does
I love the access that Overdrive gives me to my library so that I can download digital and audio books for when Im not at home Its free and easy to navigate Im a voracious learner and I enjoy that I can work and listen to books at once Its peaceful and educational Ive also recommends it to students who have difficulty reading to scaffold their understanding of content                 Easy and great
I agree with the last reviewer I have shown this to others                 Excellent way to read library books
This app has greatly expanded my ability to access books most importantly audio books It has allowed me to grind through books I otherwise wouldnt have had the time to read However the UI is anything but intuitive seemingly a mishmash of web UI and mobile UI without any obvious reasoning for what goes where It also isnt clear how to start an audio book in Overdrive rather than in their web app and returning books early is a mysterious art I always have to look up Still I love the increased access to content this app gives me and Im glad my local library supports it              Love listening to audiobooks hate the UI
Love being able to listen to audio books on my phone Im addicted BUT I am TIRED AND FRUSTRATED at losing my place when I get out of the app PLEASE FIX THIS It always restarts at the beginning of a part I cant imagine why this would not be a priority for your tech support Being able to start where you left off is 100 NECESSARY when reading or listening to a book Fix it and this is a 5           I love this app BUT
Great                 Great app
A search feature when reading a book like found in Kindle or iBooks would improve this app        Good app but
Im a new user and found the app easy to set up and use I was loving it but all of a sudden it will no longer open and I cant find a solution on the support page Sine the page for help does not have a trusted certificate i cant pose a question Help I want to finish my current book           Stopped working
Fantastic Enjoyed books audiobooks and language studies VERY helpful and convenient                 GREAT app
I have to log in every time I use this appand its at least a threestep process I have to type in my library name then click on a link and then put in my card number Why cant you get it fixed so that I dont have to do that every time I use it It would definitely be easier to use for listening to audiobooks while driving if I only had to open the app and start the book that Ive already downloaded           Why is there a choice to save my info
Like others have reported the app does a poor job with remembering where the audio book was paused But what I really cant deal with is the low audio volume I can barely hear the playback when using headphones at full volume Ive listened to a dozen books on Overdrive and always have the same problems I have listened to dozens of books on AudibleiTunes and never have a problem        Poor audio volume
Love it Thanks for the returning books early tip              Great app
