While we can't recommend specific products, Libby works well on a variety of devices, including smartphones and tablets (iOS and Android), Amazon Fire tablets, computers via a web browser at libbyapp.com, and through integrations with e-readers and car systems like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
You can also send books to a Kindle devices for reading.
It has been reported by some that the easiest devices for using Libby are Kobo e-readers and Android e-readers, as they offer the most seamless integration with the Libby app. Equally simple are iPads and iPad minis. Users may want to choose a tablet or dedicated reader that has an operating system they are used to. So, if you're very familiar with your iPhone, an iPad will probably be the easiest for you to learn, and will integrate with devices you already own. If you have an Android phone, an Android tablet will probably be easier for you to learn.
