OverDrive Media Console Mobile App Update & Your Adobe ID

On May 29th, OverDrive will release an update to the OverDrive Media Console mobile app for iOS (Apple devices) and Android. Apple users will be required to reauthorize their Adobe ID after performing the update.

If you are in the middle of reading an eBook, be sure to sign into the same Adobe ID account! If you create a new account, the eBook you are reading will no longer be authorized to you and you will not be able to continue reading the book.

Note the "Forgot password?" link to have your password sent to your email account.  

Android users will not need to sign back into their Adobe accounts. Apple users who only listen to MP3 audiobooks on the app will not need to sign in with an Adobe ID.

Returning MP3 Audiobooks and EPUB eBooks Early to the Collection

Returning Books Early from the OverDrive Media Console Mobile App

You never have to return eBooks or audiobooks early to the collection, but some formats can be returned early. The OverDrive Media Console mobile app will automatically block your access when the loan period ends, removing it from your account and prompting you to delete the title from the app. But if you finish the book early, you can return the MP3 audiobook or Adobe EPUB eBook to the collection from the OMC app.

From the app's bookshelf, tap the small plus symbol to return the title. Be sure to return then delete the title. Deleting the title will not remove it from your account.

These instructions apply to all versions of the OverDrive Media Console mobile app.
