  • Can’t change printer password from default

    The directions say that the password to the printer wifi can be changed in the app. There is not an option to do this. This is a huge security risk. Also to use the printer you must use it as a wifi hotspot to print and then you have to change your wifi back to your home network to be able to go to settings and stuff on the app. Totally ridiculous. The options for photo editing are super basic. I failed to be able to edit them when you set up multiple pictures to print in a queue.
    Finally, it’s advertised that you can use your computer with the Liene printer. However, there are no drivers for macs, only PCs.
  • It would be even better

    If you had a collage option within the app. It’s a pain to have to use a separate collage app and then save what you’ve made to then be able to print it.
    I LOVE the quality of the photos when printed. The colors are amazing. But I like to make them smaller to use in my journal and I don’t much care for the zink printers.
    Please update app to include a collage feature!
  • Unable to add more photos

    Was able to connect and print great photos thru app but trying to add additional photos into app is a mystery Makes it inconvenient to drag out my laptop just to have to print extra photos.
  • Prints but Features don’t work

    Great printer -always exciting to use- however the app allows use to use features- but when printing the picture didn’t really print with the updates- workaround- edit pictures somewhere else before opening in Liene
  • Turn off cellular

    The app won’t connect to your printer unless you turn off cellular on your phone. It kept telling me my printer was offline when it was not. As soon as I turned off cellular it finally said standby instead of offline and I was able to use the app to print.
  • Great Printer!!

    I’m blown away that you can get a dye sub printer for under $150!! In a past life I paid $12,000 for a Kodak dyesub which was the best you could buy. 23 years ago. As for the app, you don’t need it, just connect to Wi-Fi , select
    The printer and print from photos. Easy and connects immediately. Kind of old school I’ll agree with no Bluetooth but I’ll forgive that for the incredible quality of dyesub printing for $150. Now I will burn through paper and print photos from the phone which never are seen after intake them. Nothing like holding an instant photo in your hand.
  • Turn on airplane mode

    Like most of the reviewers on here, the offline is super frustrating. In order for the printer to be online. Power on the printer, select the printer name as the hot spot, and turn on your airplane mode. This should solve your issue. Works like a charm now. Although I dislike the fact that it’s not Bluetooth and kicks you off but the quality of the pictures are worth it.
  • Airplane mode. Seriously?!

    Liene is clearly the best 4x6 printer but the biggest shortcoming is in the connectivity. In the absence of Bluetooth, they’ve opted to usurp your Wi-Fi and make you connect through a hotspot in the printer. Ok, I was willing to compromise for the quality but that’s not it… I kept getting an issue saying the printer was offline despite me being clearly connected. I realized you MUST turn it on airplane mode, rendering your phone entirely useless. This is absolutely unforgivable with the tech we have nowadays. They should be embarrassed with themselves
  • Have to turn off cellular when connect to the printer

    Have to turn off cellular when connect to the printer. The user manual doesn’t mention this step.
  • Airplane mode was the only way I could get the printer to work

    Thanks to the other reviewers who mentioned it. This app will not work when you have cellular data! You have to switch to airplane mode and then connect to the printer via wifi. Moving forward I’ll just use my iPad to print, as I don’t have a cellular iPad so it works just fine.
