Effective April 10, 2014, the OverDrive Media Console (OMC) mobile app
for BlackBerry will no longer be available to download on BlackBerry,
BlackBerry 10, and Playbook devices.
BlackBerry users with the app installed prior to April 10 will be able to
continue downloading eBooks and audiobooks via OMC. However, no further
development or testing will be dedicated to it.
In the past year, OMC for BlackBerry has experienced a steady decline in
downloads. Only .3% of all visitors to digital library websites come from
a BlackBerry device. After much consideration, OverDrive has decided to
remove the app from BlackBerry App World and continue to focus our
development efforts on more widely used platforms such as iOS and
Android—both of which have moore daily downloads than BlackBerry has
monthly.
