Packed with challenges

I got it after research and feedback bought for me by friends. I was so excited to be able to print images to use in my art and have easy souvenirs from the photos I take with my phone. The fact that it was the camera itself was debatable - I wanted it to print from my own device via Bluetooth. But that didn't work. My phone recognized Sprocket. Bluetooth connected. But when I tried to print the status toggled and didn't do anything, toggled and told me something was wrong and I should try again, toggled and told me that Bluetooth is needed to connect (which connected after verifying ); It essentially refused to print anything other than photos taken using the camera feature on the device itself. (And they hit or miss in terms of quality.) And every time I tried to print while troubleshooting, Sprocket would freeze and force me to reset it with a paperclip so I could reload and try again . I've uninstalled the app, reinstalled it, used poorly managed in-app help options, all to no avail. Super disappointed. I suspect my phone is not "advanced" (read: expensive) enough to work with this unit (Motorola G6 Play) so I decided to return the money rather than try a replacement. I think I'll go back to the solid old photo printers with ink cartridges.

Pros
  • Instant camera, instant fun - print and share 2x3 inch photos or stickers whenever inspired with this photo printer and instant camera in one device
Cons
  • Great price
