Hello Keith, There was an update to the Overdrive app, today.
Your question is difficult to answer, at least, in my opinion. Let me say the following: While I like the app for reserving and downloading/enjoying audio books from my local library system, I do have some residual vision that plays a role in my Overdrive experience. 2. While the app is certainly VoiceOver accessible, I cannot say that it is particularly VoiceOver friendly--especially for someone who is totally blind. 3. The app is best when use frequently as muscle memory, with regard to the layout and functionality of the app, can greatly enhance one's experience. My overall point of view is that one can never learn too much or have too many proverbial tools in his/her toolbox so, if you have the time and energy, give the app a spin. Having said this, I would not generally recommend it for anyone who does not consider themselves an advanced VoiceOver user. This is just my opinion, of course.

Hi, Is anyone using the Overdrive app? It's used by our local library for e books and audio books. When I first tried it, several years ago, it was quite painful. If others are successfully using it, maybe I'll give it another try. Thanks in advance, Keith -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
