I already use Libby on another device, but the content isn't the same, what am I doing wrong?
Libby can work independently on separate devices, but with the same account. If you would like your tags and wish lists to stay consistent across your devices, we recommend you set up new devices by "copying from another device" You can find out how to do this via Libby's dedicated support page here
