Overdrive vs Kobo Previews
Whenever I return an Overdrive book, the KA1 automatically downloads a preview of the book I have just returned from the Kobo store. This is annoying, as obviously I don't want a preview of a book I have just finished reading.
I then have to select the book again, and check both boxes to delete the preview both from my Kobo and from my cloud library. It's just a minor niggle really, but is there a way to stop this automatic preview download (without disabling wifi)? |

Unfortunately that's "correct behaviour" (as in it's doing what it's meant to do). I completely agree that it's an aggravating way to have it set up and hopefully it will get changed in the future (not holding my breath though). No way to avoid it that I'm aware of currently.

Yes. Plus, if you made annotations while reading the library book, they will be stored with the preview.
