Brother iPrint&Label

This is about the only printing device I own that is over three years old and still working! These Products are built well, the app has many features that I use for my both my business and Personal life. I use “I print label” just about every day! Everything in my office is labeled and everything in my house is labeled. I have never liked my handwriting so I really love having this printer to label everything from taxes to flour. This labeler has been a life changer!

Oh my sweet Jesus GOOD LUCK trying to ever resize a text window. It takes literally ten tries to grab the stupid corner anchor that lets you RESIZE a text box (or whatever else) instead of dragging the entire box around - which it will do if you’re so much as ten microns off target. Definition of hostile UI. I hope you’re able to use your finger to select the two-freakin-pixel-radius area that activates the RESIZE instead of drag command. I’m not joking that this one thing alone makes using this thing and creating different labels take about four times longer than it should. Its a constant hassle. It’s sufficiently stupid that I would sell my brother label printer in a heartbeat for an alternative that didn’t do this one thing. Alas, brother label printers (and their awful software) are the worst - except for all the others. So I guess grin and bear it. Maybe in another, oh I don’t know, eight hundred friggin years the rest of the developed world will FINALLY click their brain cells together to create UIs for things like this that aren’t complete garbage. If we’re lucky.

I would like to see this app improved with a number of things. For one, having the same menu of fonts that are on the D610BT as the ones that are in the app. Another is having alignment tools when creating custom labels, let me enter in multiple text boxes, select them all, and then align them with a command. A third is having templates that aren’t cryptic with how to enter in numbers that repeat into multiple text boxes. I have no idea how to change some of the templates that are provided in this app and I have an extensive background with graphic design software. A third is having more intuitive ways of applying a font style to a whole template rather than one text box at a time for a label. This app is a good start but definitely needs a lot more help to make it amazing. For now it’s just crummy, painful software.

To be fair I had very low expectations for software made by legacy printer companies, because I literally never had one working well before. But to my surprise, this app just works, I was able to connect to my label maker Brother D610BT at 1st try and everything worked great. To be fair, the UI definitely could use a little polish and update, and the label template can be better organized, but those don’t really bother me at all.

For some reason this works flawlessly over bluetooth with my P-Touch D610PT while the MacOS app kept disconnecting from the printer. I also love that I could take the lbx file from my computer and copy it to the app here. Brilliant!

I like that this app lets you get right into the label options and it's easy to navigate with the tabs on top, which leaves plenty of room to scroll through the label options. However, why is there still a COVID category? It's time to move on. Get rid of the ridiculous "social distance" and "wear a mask" nonsense and relabel the category to something more appropriate. Good hygiene is universal and doesn't need to be wrapped up in a perpetual COVID narrative. Other than that, the app is simple and compliments my label maker well.

I give only 1 star until these problems are fixed. All barcodes can have their content written in clear text as well as in barcode form except QR. Even if you have a template file that links the QR to text in a group this app will say they’re still grouped but will not allow the data between the 2 stay linked. There should also be a way to make custom links and groups in the app rather then copy a pre-made template and alter it the way it needs to be customized or by creating a template on the infuriating desktop software.

This little time saver is great for scrapbooking. My writing isn’t that great so journaling isn’t an option when I make scrapbooks and I do four a year for Grandkids that they can read the titles of the pictures clearly with these labels. I had a different one before I got the Cube and it auto-cut the tape. I wish this one did too negating the need for scissors and cutting straight.

Trying to make simple, basic labels with centered text and a frame. Something my ancient P-Touch did trivially. But this app makes it super difficult to size the frame, lets you drag the frame outside of the printable area so it gets cut off, doesn’t properly (visually) center text. Then, when you print, it doesn’t produce a label that looks like what it showed on screen. The frame and text weren’t centered horizontally and needed to be trimmed with scissors. It’s ridiculously hard to use.

If you have a brother label printer this is the best thing! I’m always making quick fun coupons on the fly and printing them out

The app doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles. But it works just fine and is easy enough to get the job done once you learn it. Would be nice if the controls were a bit easier and more intuitive when moving things around.

Absolutely love this printer! My only regret is that I didn’t buy it sooner. I use mostly with my iPhone and no hiccups! Would buy again

I spent two hours trying to figure out the documentation for the P touch D 610BT. A waste of time, it’s so poorly done it’s incomprehensible: they focused on saving pages rather than being clear. By contrast, the iPhone app is easy to use and intuitive.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled this App on my iPad and it still crashes. To add insult to injury, I lost all my labels from doing this BROTHER recommended FIX. Is there a fix for this that actually works? I love my BROTHER label printer but unfortunately, I can’t use it effectively with this App that doesn’t work. Can you help a BROTHER out?

For basic label printing, I prefer this app. For more creative templates and interesting designs, these two are better: Design&Print & iPrint & Label

This is a very easy app to use and has a lot of options. I enjoy using it a lot in the future. Great app!

I love using my phone so I can see what the print looks like . Great Machine and App.

So far I’m not too happy with this product I just got it I put the paper in and it supposed to be in says white and it comes out clear with a black label has no stickiness to it

I wish we can sign into account so our data is saved wherever we open the app. Otherwise love itt

I have used this for years and loved it..now it crashes every time!! Lost everything and after downloading a new app and deleting old still crashes! I Have good connection ..not the problem . All other apps work. Please fix this!!! I have a business. 😡

I'm a reasonably smart person I assembled the tape loaded the software connected to the machine tried to print something and it won't print the whole label without pushing the off button quickly a couple of times to extend out the tape.

Tedious printing is an understatement. This whole product line should be binned. Is asking to print more than one label a time too much, or asking the BT connection to stay live for more than a few minutes? One star is too many for this train wreck of a product line.

Really what I should have known that this old dinosaur Brother was unwilling to provide an up to date level App to make it easy to create labels on its Cube technology. I got it on sale saving $20 but it’s not worth the time consuming 1990s level software. I’ll just hand write what I need on labels.

I followed instructions to eliminate a blank space to the left margin and no matter what I do, it doesn’t go away. On the verge of returning it. It needs better instructions. I went on the website to get a more information but it didn’t help.

So there’s no way to print shipping labels with the QL-1100nwb by Bluetooth. It only works with Wi-Fi. The reason is that the printer will only print things via Bluetooth from this app and the app has no way to add a pdf (like a shipping label) to the label. Not very useful at all.

Once the printer links up with the wifi, Which i have to set up every time I use this printer, it works great. Does not print in color on non brother paper.

Better than manually typing on the printer.

Not easy to figure out. If for example I tr to make a label that says “First Last”. It will print “First L”. If you cut the tape at that point and try to print again it will print “ast Fir”. You have to print twice without cutting to make what you want then cut off the wasted parts.

What else can I say? This app makes my whole world better and happier.

Nice app. I am using it for years

Just trying to print basic labels. Changing the text and saving, sometimes it still then prints the old text. Wastes label tape…hmm?

Clearly designed by an engineer to be used only by an engineer and not anyone else. Consistently the biggest problem with almost all of Brother products.

Works well once set up. UI a little cumbersome at times. App needs to find and reconnect to printer every time.

So far all my labels come out too short (missing part of the message) or too long (wasting precious tape). I will struggle through but it shouldn’t be this difficult.

The app itself is fine, but for some reason I need to wait like 1 minute after clicking in anything. My iPad is the new version so not sure what’s happening.

I can’t get the label to print out far enough. My text is always cut off when I cut the label.

The user interface is horrendous. Impossible to select - can’t scroll easily, nearly 2 lines show up - when selecting, entire label selects and can’t deselect easily.

App now functions with iOS 15.7+.

I love this products I’m like lil kid in a candy store

The app crashes every time I open it. Haven’t even been able to open the app.

It prints the last label I asked for when I want it to print a new one. Even then, it cuts off the second half of the label that I didn’t even want.

Big bug : Any time I try to access photos to import for making my own labels, the app crashes.

It is so convenient to use. Love it

I’m happy. Stable connection. Easy setup.

I was just starting to use this, now I’m reliant on it and it won’t run on any of my iOS devices. It starts and crashes, with no visible means of support.

No issue here!

Good to label everything, (and everyone)

This is not user friendly. I would not recommend

First label never prints correctly, so you have to print two labels to get one good one, so you use twice as much labels.

Do not waste your money on this product. I am sending mine back for a full refund.
