Installing the OMC App for Android

• The OverDrive Media Console mobile app can be found in the Google Play store on the Nexus.

Note: The OMC mobile app can also be found in the Kindle App Store for the Kindle Fire and the Nook's App Store for Nook Color, Nook Table, Nook HD, and Nook HD+. Apple's iOS users will find the OverDrive Media Console app for iPads and iPhones (and iPod Touches) in the "App Store" app on their apple device. Install the app as you would install any other app you've added to your device.

• From Google Play, search for the OverDrive Media Console app.
• Once you locate the app, tap install.

• Accept the agreement to continue the installation.
• You can watch the download and installation progress from the notification bar a the top of the screen.

• Open the app.

You may or may not get prompted to add your Adobe ID. The app must be authorized with a free Adobe ID before an Adobe EPUB title can be fulling downloaded and opened. You will be also be prompted to register your app with an Adobe ID when you download your first Adobe EPUB eBook. It is not necessary to authorize the app for MP3 audiobook downloads.

At this point, you have the choice of using the OMC mobile app's browser (which is built into the app itself) OR the web browser installed on your device (Safari or Chrome, for example) to browse the NHDB site and download eBooks and audiobooks. Either method works equally well with Android devices at this moment. However, when using an Apple device, please use the Safari web browser to visit our site. The OMC app for iOS needs to be updated to show the new "Next Gen" OverDrive website.
