### 2/5 — Horrible UI / UX

*2024-11-13, version 3.7.6*

It works but the UI and UX is some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Needs a total redo.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-08-09*

Doesn’t work

### 2/5 — Unfriendly interface

*2015-04-23*

OneDrive integration not working, although Box did. You can't send to this app from photos, have to browse photos from the app.
The pop up messages that state success or failure stay on the screen, they don't timeout.
The service needs better support of model specific PCL5e drivers.

### 1/5 — WORSE APP EVER

*2014-09-12, version 3.0.4*

Don't even bother downloading it

### 1/5 — Complete crap.

*2014-02-20*

Needed something printed urgently. Saw this app advertised at their printer on campus. I'm standing right next to their printer and the app can't locate any printer! Useless!

### 3/5 — Crashes when searching for printers

*2013-10-01, version 1.6.0*

Works great on the iPhone but tried to do the same on my iPad and it keeps crashing when I try to search for printers.

### 1/5 — Needs some work

*2013-09-30, version 1.6.0*

Force closes when searching for a printer via keywords.

### 2/5 — App malfunction

*2013-09-26*

The app closes when I am trying to search for my printer.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2013-08-02, version 1.6.0*

On iPhone 4S, try to print. Prompts you for privacy code. Enter privacy code. "Continue" button hidden because UI "shifts up" when on screen keypad displays. You can't press button therefore can't print. 

Used to be great. Needs to be fixed.

### 3/5 — Need a way to print only certain pages

*2013-03-08*

Nice app, but sometimes I don't need to print an entire pdf. It's wasteful and expensive. Page selection, please.

### 1/5 — Green!

*2012-12-23*

Save the environment and use this app.  You'll never waste another piece of paper because it won't print anything.

### 1/5 — Printer On Gmail Issue

*2025-02-01*

As various other people have stated, this app doesn't work with Gmail because of privacy issues and when using other accounts also fails to work. I doubt this will ever be updated, avoid.

### 1/5 — Privacy Concerns

*2024-09-12*

Gmail blocks this app due to “privacy concerns” so you can’t actually print anything.  This app is so sketchy.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-06-19, version 3.7.6*

Printer didn’t work and support is a voicemail message.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2024-03-16*

Super the worst the printers they said are working they are not compatible and I had a really nasty experience getting anything done. Nobody should use this app.

### 1/5 — impossible

*2022-11-04*

no instructions to set it up; many attempts knocked me out; going to library in person for help.  so far it gets a 1.

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2022-08-12*

Useless app, doesn’t work at all. Neither I nor two library staff could figure out at all what to do or how to print the documents. Literally does nothing.

### 1/5 — Download

*2022-03-02*

It’s not letting me redownload the app. It’s saying I have to put my card information in first and I personally don’t trust it.

### 1/5 — Privacy concerns

*2021-08-27*

Google blocks this app due to privacy concerns, so you cannot use it to print any documents from your gmail account.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-09-18*

It won't find my printer; there are no instructions for connecting a printer.  Utterly useless.  Not sure why it was on the list of top recommended apps.

### 1/5 — Worked great until it didn’t.

*2019-06-28, version 3.6.2*

Two weeks ago I would have given this five stars, but I’ve tried to send several jobs to the same library printers I’ve always used and the jobs look to go through then a “job failed” notice comes up with the message : expected status code in (200-299), got 403.
I don’t know what that means or how to fix it, but I now get the same error message every time I try to send a job.

### 5/5 — Easy for my public library!

*2021-12-23*

I used it for the first time today and it was easy to print something in my documents! Love it.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2018-07-10*

I used this app for the first time yesterday and I love it!!!!!
My printer is acting up at home so I’m glad I was able to get a few important documents printed.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2011-12-28*

I have been using PrinterOn for a couple of years now on my laptop.  If you are a road warrior this app is for you.

### 5/5 — So convenient

*2011-06-28*

This app is great. It's perfect for business travellers. So many Hilton hotels offer this service and this app makes it easy to find them.  Choose the document you want to print - anything from an email attachment to a photo - then open it with the app to find the closest print location.  Send it off and wait for a release code.  The security of the code lets me send print jobs with no hesitation.

### 5/5 — Messy

*2011-03-12, version 1.0.5*

Messy. Junky.

### 4/5 — Hilton’s Good Choice

*2020-03-06*

I was introduced to this app from staying in Hilton’s a lot. Every Hilton (I think) has their printers on this app. And as a Hilton Honors member I can use the business center at each property. The one issue I am having is you can’t sync your gmail directly into the app like you can yahoo and iCloud. There is an option to do so but once you start the process google kicks you out and says “google has not verified/authenticated this app, unable to sync gmail and this app until reviewed by google”. I have been waiting.

But you can print write out of your mail app on iPhone so it’s really not that big a deal. 

Keep up the good work.

### 4/5 — Printer On

*2017-07-14*

Printer On is an extremely easy to use application for those who want to print from almost anyplace whether it be the web, PDF's, your e-mail service, personal documents from your computer, mobile device or the cloud. The app completely simplifies the process of network printing which is very important for those who may not be that good at searching out printers not in their home or on their home network to print from.

### 4/5 — Almost Convenient

*2016-02-04*

It's easy to use. Just wish there were more options as far as how things can be printed such as a "print on both sides" and for power points, the ability to have more than one slide on a page. Please change immediately!

### 4/5 — Works like a charm except

*2011-02-24, version 1.0.3*

The hotel I'm sitting in came up 25th on the list?  In West Pam Beach and it listed a bunch of Boca hotels. Annoying. Otherwise, worked as advertised (no card in my room, so no web address for my computer. This was faster).

### 3/5 — Printer On

*2025-01-25, version 3.7.6*

I downloaded this app so I could print off my will kit and will do another review after it’s either done or not done
