DYMO Connect

Although this app works ok I am also reviewing this app as a labeling solution. For a company that has been working on labeling solutions for decades this app is a toy. I’m not going to consider buying your connected products until this app has features that equal the rest of your product line. My purpose requires a compact solution and since I already have a phone this would be sleek and ideal. However this app kills the potential of the printer products. I would be willing to have advanced features as add ins or pay for a separate app that can give me solutions for industries. I expected this app to do as much as your other products with keyboards do but more intuitively and with sharing and saving. I hope this encourages you to expand your products and develop a more robust offering that will be compact and rich.

I regret buying the dymo mobilewriter, wish I had a labeler with a keypad. Changes I’d like to see: 1) Make stable and resilient connections with printer. I’m constantly having to reconnect between labels. Major time waste. 2) Why do I have to manually delete all text to create a new label... please add a button to clear label text. 3) Why do I have to wait to enter the next label while the current label is printing? Can’t you handle the printing on a separate thread?! 4) Rapid label mode, just let me enter several lines of text and then have the labeler print them each as a separate label. The labeler hardware plus app is a POS and waste of time... but it is really not the hardware, if they just spent sometime on user experience, it could dominate the market. Crazy.

Even though you can’t connect through your home network, this software will connect to the LabelWriter Wireless via direct connect. It’s obvious if you read the instructions and set it up wirelessly. The only thing is you have to install software onto a computer and connect via USB to turn the access point back on. The features are fairly simplistic but it gets the job done much easier than trying to set up a template in Word and manually loading each envelope.

Decent, basic app that does what I need it to. However, I use a keyboard case with my iPad and have to turn my head sideways to view the app and create labels. My case is quite heavy on the keyboard side, so picking it up to view in portrait mode is really annoying and difficult to balance. I would be forever grateful if they added screen rotation so it could be used in landscape mode.

I had no problems connecting and getting my wireless printer to print. Label creation in the app is fairly straightforward. My only gripe is that I want to be able to access my saved label templates from any of my iOS devices and not have to recreate every single label on each device. Seems like it would be simple enough to sync your label files across devices through iCloud.
