OverDrive: eBooks & audiobooks App Reviews

Love this app!!

Really enjoyed this app

I use it all the time. I have 3 libraries on my account, so lots of books!

I absolutely love this app. Ive listened to so many audiobooks with it and can see myself using it indefinitely.

This is a must have app for book lovers! I use it daily for audiobooks.

I really like this. I love being able to download books from the library. I enjoyed listening to the books in the car or reading them when Im not. Is worth having.

I dont leave home without my kindle. My overdrive account has saved me countless dollars. Its what I would take on a deserted island.

I do a lot of reading on my phone, both with ebooks and audiobooks. Thus, were I to say Overdrive is my third choice when it comes to book apps and leave it there it would sound too negative to truly represent my opinion. Overdrive is not Audible or Kindle (both absolutely stellar apps in their own rights) but its functional and covers niches that these others dont: most importantly, borrowing ebooks and audiobooks from my local library. Im typically more likely to return to an old favorite in my Kindle or Audible libraries than I am to start a new book on Overdrive, but this app is still a great addition to any bibliophiles utility belt.

Use it to check out e-audiobooks all the time. Sleep timer lets me use to help me fall asleep. I dont like that sometimes it starts at the beginning of the same section each time you turn it on. Probably something I can fix,but annoying nonetheless. Otherwise, all good.

Im a truck driver and use this app all the time. I get the most benefit from the Audio selections. I would recommend this app to anyone!!

This is one of the best apps out there. Luv it.

Ive used this app in conjunction with my local library. FABULOUS. I recommend it to all of my friends.

I rarely read print anymore. I do wish that there was a search feature.

I cant even get in to the app because it freezes and quits while I am logging in.

Overdrive.....what a pleasure to use..keep up the good work

I love audiobooks. Health issues prevent me from sitting for extended periods of time so audio is the way to go for me. And the fact that they are free from my library through Overdrive is fabulous! I recommend this to friends and family all the time.

Super easy to use. And I love that I can switch from book to book, and not loose my place!

Great app. I use it to read books every day. Easy to use.

The app has worked okay for me when using it to check out Kindle formatted books to read in my Kindle app, although I find it rather confusing to navigate at times. Today I checked out a book with only two options: download into the OverDrive app or read in Safari (which isnt very satisfactory). It appeared to download okay into the app, but when trying to open it, the app quit. After reading through help files, Ive gone through the whole recommended process to the bitter end with no luck. This holds true for both my iPad Pro and iPhone 6+. I also learned that this has been an issue through several versions of the app. What really adds insult to injury is that This is clearly an issue with the app to be taken up with the developer, and while they provide contact info for Amazon for Kindle issues, and even how to reach support at your local library, I can find no contact info for the developer for support issues.

ZERO STARS!!!! I thought I loved you and I did for four whole audiobooks! It was wonderful! But after the app crashed THREE times and I had to delete and reinstall AND renter all my different library card numbers and passwords I think not so much. Now the app crashes constantly. Ok I think. Dont panic even though Im at the very BEST suspenseful part of the book. Ill just contact tech support. Talk to an expert and get er done! No* such*luck. There is NO PERSON ANYWHERE and the help and support FAQs are worthless because they dont address my problem. Ok go to their website I think. Nooooo no contact info for a real person no FAQ no opportunity to even EMAIL a question for help. I am done. Consider this a break up!
