### 2/5 — Can’t sign in

*2018-01-10, version 3.1.4*

Cool app but broken

### 3/5 — Digital to analog

*2017-09-20, version 3.1.4*

Duse a good job with the lab
But can't login

### 4/5 — Scanner for 300?

*2017-07-07, version 3.1.4*

So far enjoying the scanner and seems to work great! However, (and I know the pic300 film isn't an Impossible product, but would love if the scanner could recognize that size, too.

### 2/5 — Like most; Login

*2017-07-02, version 3.1.4*

I see the great potential in this app and as someone who is trying to get into photography, and who loves Polaroid, I'd like to do ordering film right from an easy source. I'd love to be able to log in and use the app to its fullest potential. 'Tis sad that this doesn't work.

### 2/5 — Login

*2017-06-11, version 3.1.4*

It'd be nice if their was actually an option to make an account and login.....

### 2/5 — Be nice if I could actually sign in

*2017-05-05, version 3.1.4*

I love using this app to crop and save my polaroids to my phone but really I could probably do that without this app. So I figured I'll try the gallery and upload a few of my pics, but I can't sign in with my online information. Why can't I sign in? So what good is this app if you can't post the pictures you've taken to the gallery because it doesn't recognize your login. Impossible your film is so expensive seems like you could afford to fix this issue. I love buying the film, don't us as customer deserve an app that works right?

### 2/5 — Can't Login

*2017-04-18, version 3.1.4*

Never been able to login, so basically this is only partially useful. Cmon people you can fix this.

### 2/5 — Nice idea

*2017-02-07*

The ability to scan with my phone and share my photos in the online community really appeals to me, except it won't let me sign in so I can't actually do much. I can sign into the website, so I'm not sure what's going on with the app.

### 2/5 — Love the film, hate the app

*2017-01-21, version 3.1.4*

I love the impossible project's film, but the app stinks.  I used to be able to purchase film right from the app but lately it just redirects me to the mobile site, which never seems to be working.

### 4/5 — Account login

*2017-01-12, version 3.1.4*

I have an account on impossible project's website, but that's apparently not the same login and there's no option to create a login. Can't really use it for what's it's designed for.

### 2/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-11-08*

App used to work. Now can't open it without it glitching. Useless

### 3/5 — So nice app. How can I login into app?

*2016-11-02, version 3.1.4*

So convinient application. 
One problem is login. I have ID possible-project hompage but login failed. How can I login?

### 2/5 — Great Company, Great film, questionable app

*2016-10-27, version 3.1.4*

I can't log into the app, I love impossible but it's impossible to log in

### 2/5 — Can't Login

*2016-10-08, version 3.1.4*

Unable to login to app using website login. Attempting to reset password says parameters missing and incorrect username/pw where attempting to login. Haven't used app yet due to this.

### 2/5 — Doesn't work with iPad mini 3

*2016-05-22*

Can't get it to connect to the iPad mini 3, it just keeps beeping and telling me to try again. Device is fine as works okay with Galaxy s5mini but crops the image more than it would on the preview shown on the iPad. If only I could get the iPad to print

### 3/5 — ok

*2016-03-07, version 3.1.3*

it's not the best. it feels like someone in marketing said, "what if we had instagram, but customers could click on the type of film a picture was taken with and go buy it?!"

I'd rather be able to see more shots made with a particular film than be linked to the store. maybe i'm missing something.

if you're looking to see some cool pictures the #impossibleproject tag on instagram seems better. but the store aspect could be useful i guess.

### 2/5 — Irritated

*2015-12-26*

Updated the app to the latest version and now the app won't open at all. Tried uninstalling and re-downloading, still the same problem. Please try and fix this issue.

### 4/5 — Great, but

*2015-10-10*

Great app now it works again with the latest update. But wish there was a way to view photos that you have liked previously.

### 3/5 — Still needs work but works

*2015-06-01, version 3.1.1*

It functions for the scanner and instant lab but the gallery still needs attention.  There is an error message constantly when I like pics and send follow requests.  I would never get notification badges bit after the update now I get a permanent (1) badge notification badge that will not go away.  Otherwise the shop is great an instant lab is good.

### 2/5 — Crops are off

*2015-03-04, version 3.1*

The cropping is way off, ie the crop I get from print does not correspond to the crop in app, making photos unusable. Nearly a full inch off. I really want to love this but am getting really frustrated at the cost of burning through unusable film.

### 1/5 — Does not work for new iPhone?

*2021-01-02, version 3.1.8*

I still have the old version of this product—now the app isn’t compatible to my phone. Can you please update?

**Developer response:** Hello, we're sorry to hear that. To understand better what's going on, we'd like to have more information. Could you please send us an email to service@polaroid.com mentioning ticket number 322698? We'll follow-up with you directly. Looking forward to hearing from you.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work any longer

*2017-11-08*

Doesn’t seem to work with my iPhone 8. The instant lab won’t expose a picture no matter how I reposition the phone. Worked well with all my previous iPhones.

### 1/5 — Can't login

*2017-10-14, version 3.1.4*

Fixing the problem of letting people actually login into the app would go a long way...

### 1/5 — Can't do anything without logging in.

*2017-01-27, version 3.1.4*

This app doesn't allow for much functionality without logging in. The problem with that is that it doesn't allow me to log in.

### 1/5 — Boooo!! Don't waste your money!!

*2017-01-13, version 3.1.3*

Have the camera that is supposed to be able to print pics from your phone - but I've never been able to get their equipment to sync with any phone. Super frustrating. Don't take the chance, it's too expensive for the equipment and the film. I contacted support and they just repeated the same instructions that came on paper when I bought it.

### 1/5 — Update fail

*2015-10-09*

Worked perfectly until I updated it to latest version, now it just says internal server error when I try and log in. Using an iPhone 6s.

### 1/5 — App not working with iPhone 6 Plus

*2015-06-12*

I've tried everything and wasted loads of Polaroid prints in the process. The app doesn't recognise the iPhone 6 Plus screen. The three points don't react as they should with the app. Disappointed.

### 1/5 — Lack Of Universal Lab Support

*2015-04-28, version 3.1*

According to the instruction manual, there should be an option in the app for selecting either Universal Lab or the original Impossible Lab.  No such option gear exists on the screen. Therefore, your photo crop will be off, especially when using an iPad.  PLEASE fix this issue.

### 1/5 — What the hell?

*2015-02-05*

Bring back the old version.  Only have image lab function now, everything else has disappeared. I want the scanner back

### 1/5 — Shockingly poor

*2015-01-31*

The scanner does not work, it does not work at all. There's no way I would trust it to purchase my films through it, if they can't get the simple scanner to work. It's pointless.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-04-06*

Perfect

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoy the app.

### 5/5 — Enhancements are appreciated

*2016-10-07, version 3.1.4*

The app has always worked well but the iPhone 7 support and updates to the new film names/types is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-08-21*

Really very good. Scanner and the Instant Lab both function very well. 
It would be good if there were a way to access the scanner gallery online without the app though.

### 5/5 — Instant Lab App

*2014-06-27, version 1.9*

Works great and I absolutely love that this app includes an animated tutorial on how to use the Instant Lab. It's also easy to use and I have yet to have it crash or experience any other issues.

### 5/5 — Fantastic features

*2014-06-01, version 1.9*

Great app!!
This app is required to use with your Impossible Instant Lab. That being said, it's actually REALLY easy to use the choose, edit, and expose your instant pictures. Its simplicity allows for immense creativity.

5 stars because the other features are so great. The scanner is such a great way to easily "scan" and share the images you make with the instant lab (and Polaroid cameras, for that matter!) 

Love the gallery section. Always full of creative inspiration, and they're all user submitted.

Fun app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2014-04-12, version 1.8.2*

Perfect way to get the film I need

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2014-03-28, version 1.8.2*

Great all in all, the gallery has some awesome shots, I always get new ideas and be inspired.

### 5/5 — Bring your digital photos into the real world!

*2014-03-13, version 1.8.2*

Stop using fake filters and start making REAL pictures you can hold.  It's easy to use and with some practice you can get awesome results.  I use snapseed in conjunction with this app to decrease the contrast and increase the saturation in your color images to have them come out the best on the Lab.  Get an Instant Lab and keep it real.

### 5/5 — crashing?

*2014-03-03, version 1.8.1*

love the app, but...

anyone having problems with it crashing? 

i'm on an iphone5s, the app was working perfectly until this morning, now everything other than browsing the gallery causes it to crash. log in, scanner, instant lab, try any of it and it crashes. 

help!!

thanks

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2014-02-28*

Love the instant lab. App is very well designed and easy to use. Great new gallery and shop
