Brother iPrint&Label 4+

Love this App & Printer

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.

Works surprisingly well

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.
