We bought this label maker to use in our home office. I had trouble getting it to connect to the Wi-Fi. I was not able to connect it but my little sister was able to get it going but it still was not an easy task but after working with it for an hour or so she finally got it working. And even though she initially connected it, it still takes a few minutes to connect to the Wi-Fi. It’s like the pre heating on your oven. It has to warm up and once it starts printing I don’t have ant troubles until the next time I want to use it and it’s the same process.

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.
It’s Okay but leaves a lot to be desired.

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.
Fixed: ALL MY INSTALLED FONTS ARE GONE!

Update: after almost five days someone got back to me and said they’d have to call me to help me… this was after a 1.5 hour chat where they promised they understood my concern and could help… they couldn’t. Thank god they sent out a new update that seemed to fix whatever bug was there in the first place that blocked all my installed and third party fonts Original review:I use this app on a daily basis! I installed fonts via iFont using different profiles and have NEVER HAD an issue! Now with this new update NOT A SINGLE INSTALLED FONT is showing up for use and EVERY SINGLE LABEL I HAVE MADE IS A MESS because it defaults to pre-installed max fonts! It would take me weeks to go back and fix everything! PLEASE PROVIDE AN UPDATE TO FIX THIS! ITS UNUSABLE TO ME WITHOUT IT!
