Brother iPrint&Scan for Positive User Reviews
✓ Not bad, needs one more round of UI fixesScanning works fine on an iPad. I like that the doc can be edited before exporting BUT, once done, there is no “back” button. Pro-tip: hit the scan button. Also, on other pages where there is a back button in the top left of the screen, hit the < character by a couple of chars to the right, rather than tapping the < character bang on. Finally, when selecting photos it would be good to preview the image BEFORE selecting it, Facebook style, for printing, rather than afterwards..Version: 5.3.1
✓ Handy app.Works OK but there can be a bit of a trade off with print quality evident. Hard to beat for convenience though!.Version: 3.3
✓ Works brilliantlyEasy to set up and use, can do everything from my phone now.Version: 6.1.1
✓ Timeout errorI have a 5250 DN laser printer. I used to be able to print with iPrint and Scan, perfectly and reliably every time from my iPad Pro before the last App update from Brother and the IOS update to 11.4. When I hit print I get an error, 'TIMEOUT data transfer timeout' The App sees the printer with the correct IP address but cannot print any more. I get the same error trying to print from my iPhone 8. I can however print successfully from my MacBook OSX so the problem is with the Brother IOS App. Please fix it ASAP .. I am giving the App 4stars in anticipation of it returning to full functionality..Version: 5.0.2
✓ So far so good.Have used the app for years with brother printer. Have just upgraded printer which now includes a fax mode, who still has a land line to connect the printer to fax? Why can we not link to mobile device and use that to dial and transmit faxes? Come on, it’s the 21st century..Version: 6.1.2
✓ Very convenient for sharing home office printerThis app is great. We have a Brother MFC-L2710DW in our home office. We can both work together and print and scan directly from our phones without getting in each other’s way. Scans can be sent directly to my work email address. It’s a seamless process. The app even prompts you to update the firmware on your printer when necessary and does it over the phone via WiFi..Version: 6.2.3
✓ New Feature IdeaReally like the app. Always works great. Would really like it if the number of copies resets to 1 after every print cycle. It’s frustrating and a waste of paper when you accidentally print multiple copies of a document because you’ve forgotten to reset the counter to 1..Version: 5.4.0
✓ This app doubled my iPhones business valueWell worth the princely sum of nothing. Works with practically no setup. Thanks brother!.Version: 0
✓ GreatWorks for me printing and scanning on iPad. Very cool. Recommended..Version: 6.9.3
✓ The UI is sorta bad but the functionality is thereI would rate the user interface as “fine” by 2009 standards, and just not up to date compared to today, but this app works shockingly well for faxing out, scanning to Files app (big one for me), printing (though I usually just use AirPrint natively in files), and machine/ink status for my 7 year old Brother MFC J480DW on my iPad Pro 3 11” running 15.4.1. The fact that I can do this stuff relatively smoothly from my iPad to my ancient printer on a different VLAN’d subnet is insanely cool*. Four stars for doing the job reliably and in some cases above expectations (for the most part), but not five because boy it hurts to look at. *Since mDNS and therefor Bonjour is a multicast service, the printer is only “visible” to things on its own subnet; you need to get Avahi Reflector running somewhere on your network to cheat and bounce the mDNS Bonjour packets between the subnets for interVLAN routing, EVEN if your interVLAN firewall is set up correctly, or the app won’t see the printer advertising and therefor won’t know where to find it; same with Airplay and AirPrint and Roku across subnets. Once Avahi is reflecting packets between the subnets, you’re home free. Make sure to set Avahi’s cache size to 0 or the printer and device names start to get real funky after a few weeks..Version: 6.7.2
✓ Worked for ScanningWorked right out of the box, scanner for devices on my network, found my scanner and was able to scan my documents within seconds of installing this ad. Was very surprised it worked so easily given I have an older printer/scanner. Can’t speak about what others are complaining about as I use this app just for scanning..Version: 6.7.1
✓ Good app but needs something newThis is one great app that I have been using for quite while, it does the job as u wanted, however u need to add a folder to save what has been scanned sometimes u just go through all the process again especially when it is quite a big file. Otherwise all good.. thanx Brother.Version: 4.5.0
✓ ScanFantastic! Thanks Brother, can print A3 plans instantly from our iPad:-).Version: 3.4.1
✓ Remote Printing from Multiple DevicesWe print from two IPhones and two IPads and one desktop often. My wife prints recipes three times a week and I am always printing something. We have a Control Center App that lets us determine if we want the scanned output go to an email, file or image. Having a wireless print function that serves us from any room in our home is convenient. We like the capability of remote printing..Version: 5.2.1
✓ Great appFantastic app, really easy to setup and use. Worked without issues with my 5yr old multi function printer..Version: 6.1.3
✓ Finally updated for the iPhone XGlad to see that the developer has finally updated the app, to support the iPhone X larger and higher resolution screen..Version: 5.2.2
✓ ReviewWorks great. Easy to print and scan from my iPhone..Version: 3.4.1
✓ It worksPrints well..Version: 6.4.0
✓ The app works!The app is okay but it does need some tweaking. On my iPhone 8 Plus there’s no machine status. So Brother please add support for all your MFC laser printer so the app can see the machine status..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Brilliant, does what it says on the tin.We use iPads, iPhones, a Windows laptop and desktop . It works seamlessly with our WiFi Brother laser printer. Only thing is I need is to rest the WiFi link after a power cut. But hey ho..Version: 6.6.0
✓ Works well for my MFC-J430W printerNever really had any major problem with my printer which I’ve had over 8 years or this app which is newer to me. An ability to show current ink levels through the app would be a nice addition though..Version: 6.7.1
✓ Brilliant!10 out of 10 Big Brother. My MacBook Pro died yesterday and I was in despair. Unable to print at all from new DCP-7055W. Found this app. It's so so easy to use, no complex setting up. Install, it selects your printer, and away you go!.Version: 4.4.4
✓ Works fineWorks fine with my IPhone 6s and Brother HL2250DN network printer, not had any problems at all..Version: 6.2.3
✓ B&WAwesome app for printing black&white from the ipad! No hassles, no asking for you to upgrade to expensive version to get all the good functions. Tried and deleted a lot of printing apps before I found this one! Thanks!.Version: 3.8.2
✓ Quick scanningFar exceeded my expectations in that I was able to quickly use my phone to scan some receipts. Bravo..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Excellent ResourceThis app has been my link between my iPad and my printer. It is absolutely fantastic. I work mine on wifi. I hope that you update your app beyond September, 2017 or I will have to go back to using my computer to link to our Brother printer. The ease with which I can use my iPad from any location in our home is amazing and I will be very disappointed if this app is not updated..Version: 4.4.4
✓ Scan to PDF - Figured it out.Update: I figured out after scanning, there is an option to email as PDF. Click the little up arrow, slide to the left, click more then select “email as PDF” I had an error saying the file size may be too large but it sent anyway. Would still be nice to have an option to save as PDF from the app. I believe this workaround is an iPhone feature. Original review: App works as intended. Hoping for an update to save scanned documents to PDF instead of PNG..Version: 6.2.4
✓ A+++Awesome app!!! Everything from printing to scanning works perfectly, real happy with it..Version: 3.1
✓ Perfect appHas all the functionality for a Quick print and quick scan plus email scan as pdf. What more do i need from a mobile device. Nice interface too. Brother MFCs are worth every penny.Version: 3.7
✓ Works great with iPad and laptopI have found this app to be very reliable, only problems I ever had were fixed by turning my modem off then on again to reestablish a connection. I send documents to the printer from 2 rooms away, approximately 10 metres..Version: 6.14.0
✓ Brother Printer AirPrint fixSimply type in your printer IP address and enable IPv6 via Network -> Wireless -> IPv6 (Wireless) menu. Click submit and AirPrint works great. Credit to poster Sly-canada in Apple forums for this fix..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Not perfect, but printing images is super fast and simple... if you know a simple trickFirst, the bad: This app is too stupid to understand that if you have a weblink to an image, and ask it to print a URL (that’s an image), that you actually want to print the image, not some mashup of the image in a useless web page. Printing images from their URL is a total fail with this app. Now, the good (the trick): Copy the image to your clipboard (on iPhone, press and hold -> Copy image), then select “Clipboard” from this app. Voila! Just what you wanted and expect. The basic image edited tools are enough to crop, rotate, etc to get what you want in seconds. I use it to print kids colouring pages. I can get the print coming out of the printer in less than a minute from asking them what image they would like, which I am very happy about..Version: 5.6.0
✓ Old school style but let’s you print to non-AirPrint Brother printerThis app has been more or less the same since the beginning of time. But it does the job. And because of it your old Brother laser printer gets a new life as you print to it from your phone. Here’s how: select print from an app. The preview shows up. Now you can’t print like you can to an AirPrint printer. But if you long press or hard press the preview, it opens like a PDF. Now you can share it to the brother print app and voila!.Version: 6.2.6
✓ Works for me!I know that other users complain about not to be able to print emails, but if you copy the text you can print it from the clipboard. So there is away around this minor non- function which I'm sure it will be solved with the future updates. Everything else is working sweet as. A+.Version: 3.2.1
✓ I like the App, but I wish it would upload to Google DriveI love the fact that I can scan and print documents from my iPhone with this app. The scans and prints are good quality and I’m able to send them to gmail or save them on the cloud or directly onto my phone. But, the app offers me the option to send scanned documents to Google Drive, but when I try, the uploading window just shuts down every time. I can work around this by emailing them to myself via gmail, but then I have to send a separate email for ever scan sequence and then have my inbox full of scan emails that I then have to touch again and send over to Drive. Please just make the app send scans directly to Drive. I would give 5 stars if it could do this!!.Version: 5.6.1
✓ Works for me!Does just what it says it does!.Version: 3.0
✓ It’s perfectIt’s honestly fine. Only about two taps and I managed to print something. All these bad reviews are just people who most likely don’t have their network set up properly. Anyway amazing thanks <33.Version: 6.14.0
✓ For a free app, not badMostly the real issue is iOS anything is going to be a pain to print from, unless you want to pay $15 monthly subscription. As for my four stars, once in the print settings you gain control of resizing, which is one of the most important features in any of the paid apps. So, yes, it could use a bunch of other bells and whistles, but notably I haven’t been able to rotate in app, or, say turn off ink low level annoyances. It does have its place on my device, so four stars😎.Version: 6.1.1
✓ Brilliant - it is easy and worksBest app i have ever had, easy to use , can print from your phone or tablet and chose what you print. It does what is said brilliant 10 out of 10 easily.Version: 4.4.4
✓ Pretty usefulWould be good to have to option to print a fast draft copy..Version: 5.2.2
✓ It worksSet this up on my iPad to connect to my Brother wireless laser printer via Dropbox and it worked straight away..Version: 5.2.1
✓ Meh, it does what I askI print A4, black and white (nice stuff I get done by pros) documents most of the time. I'm not a graphic designer. I don't print little colour flyers for the little local shake'n'bake. I just print documents. I've gotten used to it over the last month quite easily. It's no different for me than to call it Airprint's baby brother. It's nothing flash, but neither am I..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Works WellAllows previously restricted access to my printer from my iPad and IPhone while enabling access to printing Configuration and Preferences. Great little app… thanks!.Version: 6.7.1
✓ Absolutely awesomeI bought a MFC-L271 laser printer/scanner copier and put it on our wired network. This app lets us all print or scan to/from our phones as ipads , it works well with no issues at all..Version: 6.4.0
✓ Fantastic! Works with older Brother printersThis is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I have several older Brother laser printers and have a number of spare toner cartridges, so I didn’t want to buy a newer model so that I could use AirPrint.... then I came across this app. Within seconds after installing the app, I was easily able to connect to my network Brother printers and it was simple to scan and print. Easy to use, highly recommended for anyone with Brother network printers (do not need to be wireless network printers, can be ethernet). I have two models that are working well with the app - MFC 7440n and HL 5250DN.Version: 5.6.1
✓ Brother Printer ApplicationPerfect for the home to do all that is needed by Mum and Dad and the kids in high school has it meeting purpose and needs..Version: 4.6.0
✓ Great app! Fast and easy to use.You must buy the printer models listed in the Apple Website..Version: 3.1
✓ GodsendLong story, but my laptop is dead and I urgently needed to print, sign, scan and email a document. I happened to have an old Brother printer with wireless capability. I plugged it in directly to my router, and this app found it immediately and I was quickly able to figure out how to save the document to the cloud and print it through the app, sign it, scan it and email it all through the app. The app completely controls the printer. So cool..Version: 4.4.4
✓ Very useful appGreat app to use with my iPad. It prints using wifi and can be connected to Evernote, gmail, one drive and Dropbox..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Works well but could do with more configuration optionsThis app works well for me, though I can’t seem to find an option to adjust the print quality..Version: 5.3.0
✓ Hard to see ‘save’ button when Exporting PDF to “iDrive”First time I tried a scan-to-phone, I didn’t even notice/get an offer of JPG or PDF, but more ‘egregiously’ once I was able to Share as PDF, I thought it couldn’t save a copy to iOS/iCloud “Files” because there was no visible OK/Done/Save icon (my phone is permanently using Dark Mode, in case that matters) when I am in any folder 📁. When that happened last time, I saved to a Note instead to use iOS native apps to re-save in Files, but this time I ‘guessed’ where a Save icon might be, at it worked!.Version: 6.10.0
✓ Best companion for brother printerI honestly have no idea why there are so many bad reviews for the app? It literally makes scanning so easy and time efficient. I get the stuff i need directly as a pdf file..Version: 6.9.4
✓ Saved me!My PC has been broken for months and I was afraid I'd never be able to scan from my home printer again. Until I had the bright idea to look for an app. Even my 3 year old wireless model worked perfectly! I scanned a 19 page document, converted it to a PDF, and emailed it along with saving it to my phone. No more having to scan sensitive personal info at work! I'm so happy. I can't vouch for the power of the app besides simple set up and pushing the "scan" button then following on screen directions, but I'm thrilled with it..Version: 4.4.4
✓ Best printer appI can’t tell you how refreshing it is to have a printer app that I can install and just work almost immediately with my printer, no need for a subscription or me to create an account. It’s a little lacking in printing and scanning options but works perfectly for my use cases. Thank you Brother for making an app that isn’t just another income stream!.Version: 6.14.0
✓ Great customer service!!I can’t find my printers on my network anymore after the last update!!! It’s been fixed now..Thanks Brother iPrint&Scan...Version: 6.2.6
✓ It works!I’d love it if the third button “Machine Settings” did something useful. As it is, it weirdly opens up a web page in Safari using the router numbers, which then returns a 404 unknown error. It appears my 10 year old printer simply doesn't support wifi settings adjustments- so it seems there’s no selecting different trays... or turning the printer on with my iPad. Can’t set landscape/portrait orientation manually, or adjust size by exact number. My landscape oriented photo was automatically turned 90 degrees. Does print and scan things rapidly from my iPad. It works. If there’s any bells or whistles from machine settings, I can’t imagine what I’m missing..Version: 6.1.2
✓ ConvenientIt is really nice because when you are using Apple, you can direct images or files to this app. Completely free of charge!.Version: 6.1.2
✓ Can’t send pdf via emailAfter a year or two scanning and sending pdfs through my iPhone email app, it seems that you’ve removed this. Can you please put that ability back in? Now I have to save the pdf first, and then open my email to write a new mail. It worked pretty well before and now it stinks..Version: 6.10.2
✓ Great with PDF scanningMy only wishlist for this app is that it can scan to my phone a document in .pdf format. This becomes particularly useful if I am scanning multiple pages through the feeder. Getting them as image files doesn’t really cut it. But overall, a solid and useful app..Version: 6.2.4
✓ Remote printing supportCan you please add the ability to add multiple brother printers and also add the ability to add remote printers please. I have been using brother mfc 7440n for last 8 years and now i dont have mac so need it for ipad ease.Version: 5.6.0
✓ Thanks heapsExactly what I wanted. Does the job simply and seamlessly. Thanks brother.Version: 3.7
✓ Works as advertisedDownload to print took about 4 minutes. Worked exactly as advertised. No hassles. As already noted by others, full printing would make it indispensable..Version: 2.2
