NIIMBOT 4+

Great for home use.

I love the app and D11 printer. The many selections of label types and sizes are nice. (cable tie labels/ luminating labels/ longer addresslabels). I purchased a few ($8.99 each at the time of rating) and will update regarding the ease/difficulty with switching and calibrating each time I switch label rolls
The app service bott for support is not very helpful and just regurgitates general info, all which was irrelevant to my support question. The issue was with the App loading device selections to choose before allowing me to access items for puchase. The list to choose from was blank and froze the app. Eventually, it was resolved on its own.

Needs work

I really wanted my D1 101 printer to work. Out of the box this app gave me issues with Bluetooth connectivity. then suddenly it worked. I was hopeful. Then I noticed it did not correctly identify the labels installed. I put it aside for a little while allowing it to charge though it had adequate charge on it. When I went to use it again, the labels were identified correctly. I was hopeful again. I printed several labels out and was pleased with the results. I switched the label roll to Christmas labels that were of the same brand. It could not identify the label. The settings were not correct for the label and it would not print on them. It would eject two labels. Though I have manually selected the correct labels it would not work. So after running about 8 to 12 labels through it, I decided to give up. Restarted the app and the printer however, it never detected the Christmas labels in the app. I put the sample roll of labels back in the printer, and it did not detect them.
I am surprised that there have been any successful use of this product by anyone. The labels come with an RFID tag installed. This is how the app is supposed to identify the installed labels. Very clever and keeps you from buying generic cheaper label. That’s OK. I knew that going in. However, I could not get it to work consistently. It was returned. I have not found a replacement that I will trust at this point.

Works but No Keyboard Support and Ads

I got the Nimbot about a month ago Bluetooth connects quickly and printer responds to app commands well, the issues I have are the app not working with keyboard or mouse effectively with the iPad. When using iPad you still have to use the touch screen keyboard in order to make labels which is clunky when typing is so much faster. Hopefully this will be addressed when the next update is done because this makes the label making process much smoother and just makes more sense. The Ads also should be removed from the app since it was not advertised as part of the Nimbot purchase. I can understand the app having ads if this was a standalone app used with multiple branded printers but not for items paid for fully. A better marketing method to the developers make ad viewing optional upon device setup not a baked in feature that annoys consumers. So with that said I will give the Nimbot 3 of 5 stars, it would have earned 5 of 5 if the non touch screen iPad keyboard was usable and there were no Ads in the app.
