Ratings and reviews

Overdrive is an absolute app to have if you enjoy reading. It is so convenient because you have the library at your fingertips without leaving the house. You pick from the app whatever you want to read whether it is a book or magazine and if you prefer an audio book, you can pick that as well. Once you are done with the item, a simple click of a button returns the item to the library! So convenient, so easy to use and so many items to choose from.

Best app I've found for reading ebooks. Layout is simple and intuitive. I use it for both ebooks I've downloaded personally and ebooks I check it from my library. Connects to my library's quickly and easily and I love the collections it gives for browsing. I have no idea why the developers are shelving it in favor of Libby, which is confusing and visually stressful. Please let us keep Overdrive!

Easy to navigate; enjoy this app immensely. Why the SDCL library is discontinuing it is beyond me. I do not find the replacement Libby to be menu driven and therefore a challenge until you really get it down... Don't have time to relearn something every time there's an update or change or new app or or.... If it weren't broke don't keep messing with it
