### 2/5 — Clunky - not user friendly

*2026-08-27, version 7.0.6*

I cannot understand why this App has such good reviews when it seems very clunky to me. 
1 If you want to create collage photos you cannot select photos you have already uploaded into the app or Fuji’s own sample photos - or if you can my family & I have been unable to find out how to do this. So you have to go back into your photos and find them all over again! 
2 You can’t save any editing preferences. To print good photos I’ve found you need to up the contrast and saturation to about 3/4 of the way along the slider. And I’d like to be able to save that setting rather than re-do it every time I print. 
3 You can’t just switch from Design Mode to Simple Mode once you are in print editing mode. So it’s impossible to see how an identically edited photo would print in the 2 modes. 
4 So far I’ve been very unimpressed with the printer (print+ new in 2026) and I don’t think this clunky app helps at all.
5 You can’t edit pictures off-line from the printer save them up and print them later. I wanted to do a whole batch of guest photos with frames stickers etc to print them out in a batch later. But you can’t save the photo unless you print it. So if you run out of film you are  stuck. 
6 AR is very unstable and fiddly. It drove even my patient sibling to distraction. And again there’s no way to pick a photo from those you’ve uploaded or Fuji’s sample photos to be a background.

### 5/5 — I love my printer

*2026-07-23, version 7.0.6*

I love my printer. I love how I can make changes to the pictures and even print a snapshot from a video that I would want as a picture! Excellent quality prints every time!

### 5/5 — Reliable!

*2026-07-23, version 7.0.6*

my favorite thing about this printer app is that as long as it’s connected, it will always print perfectly unlike other printers where you have to worry about the ink or the paper quality or streaking or things of that nature the mini Insta link always prints perfect. Plus I love all the cute stickers and adjustments and edits that you can make with in the app! absolutely worth it.

### 5/5 — Love it

### 5/5 — Instax

*2026-07-12, version 7.0.6*

This has been the best reliable little printer, I’ve printed out soooo many pics of my kids childhood and scrapbooked them!

### 5/5 — The perfect Polaroid without the hassle

*2026-07-11, version 7.0.6*

This is the perfect Polaroid camera alternative without having to look around a huge camera with film. This is super tiny. You can throw it in your bag and print any pictures you want you can edit them anyway you want it is so easy and convenient but still gives you those perfect Polaroid pictures you love

### 5/5 — Awesomely convenient

*2026-07-08, version 7.0.6*

I love the mini link because u can take my photos from my phone and print them as Polaroid for a fun nostalgic feels!

### 4/5 — Clarity

I love it. It’s so fun like you get a type it shows you. It’s really fun. You should definitely get it.

### 5/5 — Love this🤍

*2026-07-01, version 7.0.6*

It’s so easy to use and I did not have any problems with it. In all the photos I’ve printed have turned out amazing. me and my friends have so much fun printing photos of us and if you’re thinking of using  frames that the app provides, they have some really cute ones. Overall, I definitely recommend it if you are thinking of buying it,

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-06-30, version 7.0.6*

Works great and prints easily. Can only hold 10 photos at a time. So make sure you stock up on film.

### 5/5 — 5 étoiles largement méritées ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

*2026-06-28*

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Un vrai coup de cœur ! L’application est fluide, simple à utiliser et incroyablement ludique. Les impressions sont de très belle qualité et les options créatives permettent de personnaliser chaque photo. La connexion avec l’imprimante est rapide et fiable. C’est le compagnon idéal pour immortaliser les plus beaux moments et les partager autrement. Bravo à Fujifilm pour cette application réussie ! Photos prises avec iPhone 16 PRO MAX 📸✨

### 1/5 — Broken and bugged

*2026-07-10, version 7.0.6*

Got my instax mini link 3 around Christmas time and used it once until the app completely stopped working I am no longer able to connect my printer to the app anymore which is very annoying since my family paid alot of money for it, I am considering taking my mini printer back to the shop and getting a re fund as I can no longer connect it to the app. Whatever update that’s been made on this app is TERRIBLE and is not good I was enjoying it alot about Christmas time and now it’s just stopped please fix this ASAP as people will be wanting these mini printers on birthdays and Christmas or just a sweet treat. If any devs or owners want to speak to me they can DM me or write back to my review on here, thank you!

### 1/5 — Washed out pictures

*2026-06-27, version 7.0.3*

I used the app couple of years ago and was very happy with quality of pictures, I downloaded the app again and the pictures printed all very washed out and colour are not like the pictures at all, is there anything different in the app or do I need to make adjustments!

### 1/5 — 今現在最新のOS に対応してないと思われるのでご注意を！

*2026-06-23*

今現在iPhone15を使用。
OSは最新状態です。
2年前まではiPhone SE2で、その時には問題なく使えましたが久しぶりに使いたくなってアプリを起動したら、"本アプリを起動するためにBluetooth、写真のアクセスを許可して下さい。権限がないとアプリは利用できません。"というメッセージが出ました。
なのでiPhoneの設定からmini linkアプリの項目に行きましたがそもそもBluetoothを設定する項目も、位置情報を設定する項目も表示されておらず設定のしようがない状態です。
写真の許可設定だけは表示されます。
iPhone本体のBluetoothでも検知されません。
他のデバイスは検知されますし、別のアプリなどでは問題なくBluetoothなどの設定項目が表示されます。
mini link3本体は電源が入り、満充電できている状態です。
以前使っていたスマホとのBluetoothも解除済みです。
iPhoneの再起動、アプリの削除、再ダウンロードなど出来ることはすべてやったと思います。
ダメ元でOSのアプデをせず手元においてたiPhone SE2に再度アプリをダウンロードして、本体のBluetoothも接続し直したら…なんと！！使えました！
お願いですから最新のOS に対応して下さい。アップデートされてないですよ！！！

### 1/5 — Mini 2

*2026-06-23, version 7.0.3*

It’s no longer an option

### 1/5 — Can’t connect to my mini instal printer

*2026-06-20, version 7.0.3*

Ever since the new app update I can’t connect my original mini instax printer with Bluetooth to print any photos ☹️ I tried everything it says to do. I disconnected my old phone, I made sure Bluetooth was enabled. I tried all the different modes. Nothing works

### 1/5 — Не находит принтер

### 1/5 — Print quailyy

*2026-06-08, version 7.0.3*

Printing blanks.

### 1/5 — リッチモードが消えた

*2026-05-27*

画質設定が出来なくなった(設定アイコンから消えた)。以前リッチモードで使用してちょうど良い状態だったが、リッチモードが使えないため自力で調整するしかなく、色々やってみたが色味がほとんどなかったり白飛び気味にしかならなくなってしまった。ノーマルモードでは画質も全体的なぼやけ感が非常に強くなりかなり質が下がるので困っている。

### 1/5 — Bluetooth Problem

*2026-05-13, version 7.0.2*

I have the instax mini 2 and I’ve been trying to connect to the app to print (which I’ve done before) however the app keeps saying it cannot find a printer. I’ve tried everything, restarting my phone, charging the printer, I’ve turned the bluetooth on and off. Nothing is working.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-08-26, version 7.0.6*

The best for small back up photos.

### 5/5 — Awesome clear and quick

*2026-08-25, version 7.0.6*

Very efficient

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-25, version 7.0.6*

I love this so much it’s perfect for when you need a quick little gift. I do wish the charging would go faster. When you finish the pictures they come out beautiful. I also wish it would let you keep it on for a long time when the battery is low because sometime it doesn’t stay on if it’s under 20% but this is a very good idea for younger kids

### 5/5 — 😛

*2026-08-22, version 7.0.6*

It so fun to edit and print photos

### 5/5 — GAME CHANGER

*2026-08-15, version 7.0.6*

this app works seamlessly with the physical instax printer! i’ve gifted so many photo memories and they’re always received with the biggest smile because it’s a nice nostalgic touch and having a physical photo just brings an extra oomph of love. you can edit the images in the app too if you want to tweak anything.  i’ve never had any connection issues with my printer+app and i’ve had it for over 3 years. get it! have fun with it! scrapbook the photos, the possibilities are plentiful.

### 5/5 — La mejor

*2026-08-10, version 7.0.6*

Me encanta es la mejor opción d e tener conmigo a los que quiero y las fotos salen perfecta

### 5/5 — Melhor compra
