KODAK STEP Prints

could not find the printer

kind of hard to get it to do what you want

I love it

La actualización de firmware para la Kodak Step no se mueve de -34, incluso después de hacer muchísimos movimientos en la memoria caché de mi celular sigue sin funcionar la actualización.

excellent mini printer Kodak . I love it

I don't like that I HAVE TO put my location on and everything on for a picture, who needs all that when the picture doesn't have the date, time or state I'm in!! all I want is the picture. the apps data doesn't NEED to know where I AM

Good app

I loved it until it just stopped working. I can't print anymore. I keep getting an error message.

Claims it won't work properly without permissions, but refuses to let you use the app without all permissions enabled. Disgusting just to print pictures.

its easy to use and has basic editing functions. I dont have anything bad to say.

I love the ease of use and features. I am using an old style small photo printer with it and it works great every time!

Great for scrapbooking

This app refuses to run without being given permission for precise location which it really shouldn't have a need for. Really unfortunate.

great fun printing sticky pic for scrapbook ect.

easy to use and fun. a little buggy at times though, app freezes or app goes black

good

easy and quick to print photos

battery of the device has not lasted long at all taken 5 pictures left over night or two and go to print and can't due to low battery. Also unable to print while charging.

app works fine, but why does a printing app insist on having precise location? get rid of that feature, there is zero reason to require location for printing.

I just updated the app today Sept 4, 2026. The app keeps crashing after the update. Version 30.47 on Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. *UPDATED* Today is Monday, September 21, 2026 and there is still no response from the development team.

awesome 👌

one of the top 5 mobile apps that actually work and no problems.

love it

I would like to print from my screenshot and it won't let me. it only let me print pictures from Facebook

Tries to stop you using the app unless you give it full location access all the time. Seriously?

Its a good app for printing photo very simple. unfortunately no option for printing for a cloud/Google storage. Otherwise no problems. Would b nice to have a few more options for editing photos too.

easy to use!

have not downloaded the update yet.

my only true complaint is that whenever I print pics into stickers, I have to scroll back to the spot I was before. it always goes back to the top of the list.

awesome experience

takes ages to print. prints duplicates when you send more than one photo at a time. gets hot and because of it, it prints with lines.

awsome to print while on vacation

I love it and now I can hang up all my pictures🖼️ 10/10 highly recommend 😁

GOOOOD

very easy to navigate and I like the layout of the app, it was also easy to get my printer to connect to it

Works great! Only thing I'd want better is the color resolution.

fun

works great

this app SUCKS now. do NOT buy this printer if you value your privacy at all. now you can't use it unless you give it full location permissions. uninstalling and buying a better printer.

so easy to use. love this

great

Very easy to use, impressed with quality of prints, small but beautiful.

basically a data spying app. if you have personal photos on you phone it will be on thier servers as soon as you open the app.

Very handy for taking pix of our Mom at the care facility & immediately printing them for her.

I'm very happy with this product. And yes, I highly recommend it. Keep up the good work.

amazing!

You ask for too much info to work. You don't need my location to print a photo. You don't need to notify me of anything if I don't want to be notified. And all though not required your all permissions access is ludicrous.

The app itself is easy to use, but the quality of the prints is poor. The colour is washed out, really terrible. Adjusting the colour and brightness in the App doesn't seem to make any difference. Great photos look a bit rubbish to be honest. And the 'film' is so expensive. I'm very disappointed I wish I'd bought a different make of mini printer 😢

got this step printer as a gift and upon trying to use it for the first time it won't let me use it without allowing access to my location. weird. other printer apps don't need my location. probably won't use..

Great portable printer for my junk and travel journal. Easy to set up and use

nice app

great

I am not able to bring all my photos up. it worked great last week and now nothing it just spins.

photo color is dark and yellowish but we still use the photos in journals. Wish the color was better!

Love the gadget, could use more instructions and troubleshooting Q&A. The ability to print photos for journaling is really cool.

good

I love this so much it so nice and awesome and its prints amazing photos it beats going anywhere else to print them then when you can just do it at homes

it's so unreal

why do the app need location all the time and only precise location.. I dont like that and the use of my camera .. why it's a printer shouldn't it only need access to my photos

Love this app!! Works well and is easy to use. No glitches once paired with your device.

Why for the love of Christ do yall force me to enable Notifications or the app refuses to open, just loops you between permission pop up and app settings. Send me 1 Notification and I'm throwing this printer in the trash and deleting the app, bet

So user friendly. Great photo quality. Cute size for mini albums, cards & other projects. I recommend this mini printer.

good printer terrible app

It prints...that's all, editing sucks! Zoom/crop works only if the intended zoom/crop is somewhat in the center of the original. Developers didn't test this app...junk!

sorting option does not work. I need to move images to different empty folders to find and select them.

I've honestly had so much fun using this product. It works pretty good and is straight forward to use. Sometimes it takes it awhile to recognize the printer is out but overall gets the job done.

Easy to use.

cannot print from all my photo albums

Just won't work, Bluetooth or direct.

I've really liked using Kodak, I have printed phones and used them like Polaroids to decorate my room. Their pretty affordable and easy to use. The only thing is whenever I use them they are kind of tinted pink-ish, im not really sure why that is. Other than that the app works great and so does the product

love this app

the frames you add to the camera are centered rather than traditional polaroid style so I cant add notes.

The decorating features are fun, but I cannot get it to update with photos from one of my albums since switching to a new phone.

love this photo printer!

fun and easy

fab

this printer and app is so good you can customize a make diffrent kinda of pictures and it has great quality pictures

I would like to be able to access all image locations on the phone, now just photos and screen shots

it is a good app 10 out of 10 it's awesome

Super easy to use and very happy with how the pictures look.

this has been so easy to use

my husband got this for me for our anniversary back in 2019 and I still use it to this day! love it.

love this

Absolutely amazing, highly recommend, it takes zero ink and only a few minutes to print!!!!!

easy to use ☺️💕

Super handy tool, but it would be better if it was a bit more reliable and a bit better quality.

it print out my pictures very good

works well but I'd like a sharpen function

trouble with editing, bringing photos over from other apps.

i love this app

it keeps having the problem that it is not responding and I can't use the app

Why do you need location on?

can't get it to print from Kodak step

I love it my pictures come out so clear

So far so good...I actually got mine thru the COIN app but am impressed so far - came with 2 pavks of film,25 total. Super ez to connect to my phone and they print l8ke I want.

absolutely love it

Would rate higher if it didn't require precise location, notifications on and camera access. I just want to use it to print pics I already took. The Kodak photo printer app doesn't require them and it works perfectly, wish it worked with the step printers. Update The developer responded stating precise location is required to maintain connection with printer but that doesn't make sense because the Kodak app for the Mini 2 Era works without it, they didn't give a reason for the other permissions.

it frequently shuts down and you have reboot the app or try to print the pictures again

Amazing connectivity and use

so annoying. can't zoom in pics if selecting more than one pic. every time you print a pic, the galary goes back to the top - you could be all the way down wanting to print pics from vacation 6 months ago - after the first boom you're back up top at today's pictures. no possibility to search for pictures either

this app has many a bug. it's always yelling at me that I haven't given it the right permissions (I have) and that I'm not using Zink paper (I am). luckily I've found work arounds to make it work, but it's anything but seemless. I do love the ability to edit photos and add frames in the app! it's just gotten more buggy over time

It would be great if we get more editing options like background color, for example when you tilt a photo, wherever isn't covered turns white. it would be great to change that. And a ruler to show how big pictures that are being printed would be as stickers. And the collage is very strict when using it, you cannot move the photos you've chosen at all, which makes it hard to select what you really want shown

I bought a little printer hoping for and expecting better. This app is terrible. Spend a little bit more money and buy a different brand. I wish I would have. I typically read negative reviews and assume the person might not be tech savvy. Many of the reviews for this product are accurate. There is no reason this app needs the permissions it asks for in order to operate. It's a simple phone to printer connection. No need for access to everything all of the time.

Good little printer. Easy to use. Really good if you want to print photographs that you can stick in scrapbooks or on your fridge. Have found that I need to keep the card used to calibrate the printer as I've noticed that sometimes the photographs get out of alignment over the course of printing a number of images, which results in a white line at the edge of the printed image.

App is clunky, bug-adled, requires access to permissions it doesn't actually need, printed photo colour is abysmal (darkens everything), and worst of all it doesn't allow you to use the actual Zink brand paper (must be Kodak branded Zink paper). If you're reading app previews prior to purchase (something I wish I'd done), please save your money and avoid this printer. Saving a few dollars isn't actually worth it in this case.

Decent app, even though it crashes on about 1 in 3 occassions when you try to add a frame to a photo (frames in general have a pretty long loading time). I would really appreciate favorite sections too, like a way to mark i.e. your favorite frames so you don't always have to scroll through the 300 options. It's great having so many options to pick from, but having to go through all of them completely unfiltered can be a bit much. Maybe add some more simple stickers too?

App and printer seem extremely fragile in terms of functionality. I give 3 stars because it actually has worked for me, but the app is prone to crashing and most of the time it does not really explain what the problem is. If you use this mini printer and you have a problem, you're going to have to troubleshoot at each step. The device needs a good charge and does not last long, so keep it plugged in. Get the app, update it, try startup steps in a different order, reset if needed, etc.

I love the app. The issue is I'm constantly having to Uninstall and reinstall due to it crashing all the time.

Unable to Print. This app gets worse over time. I literally can't make it past the print page and even tho everything is connected, I can't get past the Bluetooth connection page.

I bought this printer a year ago and it worked great. Now, all of a sudden, it just doesn't work... It tries to connect to my printer that it's ALREADY connected to?!?!? What gives? I searched and searched for a mini printer that would finally work with Android and it's now garbage like the rest. Seems to be a recurring problem for others as well. Disappointed

My only major complaints are that the device will stop printing once the battery reaches 16% and it will not finish the picture that was printing at the time, wasting that paper. Why not just adjust it so that it shows closer to 0% when it's at 16? I wasted 3 pictures thinking it would print because it showed 16% battery and figured it should print. Also, the app does not allow you to check device info to monitor battery life while printing, so if it runs low you WILL waste one of the paper.

After years it STILL has the issue with the printing and cutting off in odd spots. That aside, I say a firmware update. It downloaded entirely and then on the "installing firmware" screen for my camera, it says "BT update error." Each of the 5 times I've tried updating it, I've received this error...

I have the very same issue Rebekah Wegner did with the app continuing to crash AFTER I have it all the permissions from my phone. You told her it was an isolated issue but it's not and I have a screenshot of the error. Please fix this.

Garbage. Wish I could give this app and device zero stars. Needs a lot of permissions and even when given, it just does not work. Very disappointing - will be returning printer for a refund too. Garbage. Update: Dev responded to indicate issue may be with my device. Please look at other reviews, I'm clearly not the only complainant. Fix it, or fail Kodak.

It's a good app to use if you have the miny printer. But the updates are stupid I have been waiting 3 days for the update to complete and it is sitting at 100% saying please wait. And it says I need yo turn on my storage and camera permissions but.... there on...so idk at this point.... Yours truly, the person who just wants a photo of there fish...

App worked perfectly fine for about a month until it didn't. If I go a long time without using it, it will print out a few photos and then stop printing with the message "Data send error, please try again". There is nothing wrong with the printer. Something funny is happening with the app and it's very frustrating. Hopefully it gets fixed.

Used to be able to pinch to zoom in during print preview, which was essential to me as these photos are small enough as is, I need to be able to zoom into my photos to get them in the print area properly. Now it doesn't work! I have to crop/edit them before loading them into the app to print. Why did you take away such a useful feature?

White screen, won't load, keeps saying app need photo & storage permissions when all permissions are granted then goes to white screen. Very disappointing.

Keeps stopping and asking for permissions it already has. Just updated firmware, printed 2 photo, and now it won't do anything.

Google Photos just says "loading" and never becomes available. If I go into Google Photos and find my picture, the app is not available on the "send to" quick link. It's difficult to find the photos I want in the app so using this would make things so much easier.

I make custom earrings and keychains for people and this is super helpful. But, there is commonly errors and it is hard to sign in. Otherwise, perfect!

The percut sticker option is not available for Android yet. I had to call Kodak to find that out. So 2 stars until that gets updated. How is this not noted somewhere in the package? How is this an issue when Android is not a new thing? Why?

Color is disappointing ... but I will be more than happy to fix my review if someone can help me fix it I use the blue sheet that comes with the paper and my pics cone out half on the orange side and half on blue/purple.

I got the printer for Christmas as a gift. It worked pretty good with a bit of connection struggles, but now it just won't connect to my phone at all, but it'll connect to others. 🤦🏿‍♀️💔 Heartbroken, I was using it to decorate my wall! Last time it connected to a device was last month on my cousin's phone, so I know it's not broken but I don't know how to reset it! What do I do 😭😭??

It is the best 👌 if I print picture it comes out. I xan even put stickers on it u can also print a video and it will show it as little pictures

Got this for Christmas and just used it for the first time. Color quality isn't all there yet, even after the blue calibration sheet. Im hoping the colors will come together for the next picture. The ease of set up and use of the app is nice. The printer itself is very quiet and quick. Once the color gets worked out, this is a very nice product thus far.

I wish that it would make sure your whole picture is being printed instead of cutting half of it off & eating paper. Not sure how to properly print it to where my picture is framed right to fit. Other than that, love it!

Very satisfied with my new Kodak step printer. Was pleased with how my first picture came out. It was what I expected as far as size cause it's small, but I only wanted it for my church photo booth.

It randomly crops pictures if you zoom them, even though it looks like you should on preview to make them fit which wastes the paper and is frustrating

A lot of connection problems and it runs slow. Easy to find and select pictures and to print once is connected.

Horrible. It's don't connect to my printer no matter what I do or how many times I re-download the app. The printer connect with every single Bluetooth available in the house, except for the app 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 So tired. I'm so frustrated. It's worked amazingly before.

I just got the Kodak Step printer and I'm loving it. It's everything they said it is and with Kodak as a reliable name in photographic products I was confident this was going to be a great device. The product is of great quality, it has a wide variety of colors to fit your personality, it is user-friendly, it has many useful features and the photo paper it uses is very affordable. I'm very pleased 😄 with it. I even got one for my sister. I'm sure she will love it as much as I do.

Im not sure if the app is the problem or the printer is, but the firmware update refuses to download, citing that it needs to be accepted on the printer's end (what?) The printer has a single button. That is the power button. Someone please for the love of god explain to me how exactly Im supposed to achieve this on a device with no interface other than the app.... the app which is being supremely unhelpful in any of this

Its simple to use but i had a hard time connecting the first time until i noticed that one of the requirements was to have location on

Connectivity is difficult. Have to uninstall and reinstall app repeatedly. When connected, it works great.

It's a really great printer but it takes forever for it to hook up to my phone. They can be right next to each other and it'll be searching for a device for hours. My phones Bluetooth is on and my printer is on. This is super annoying

I've only had this in my paws for a few hours, but I wanted to say how easy it is to set up and get going. After downloading the app there was one app update, and a firmware update, neither took long. I just printed my first pic, and am very happy with everything about it. Other reviews had me worried a little about color, but nothing to worry about. Plus the app has great filters, frames & stickers! First pack of pics included are only pics, not stickers. Just be aware of that.

Every time I attempt to print a photo, no matter how I do it, it comes out blank. Also, every time I attempt to print, it says I need to install an update, and it is the same update every time, the 1.0.4 update, it makes me install the firmware, on my device, then on the printer, and the printer takes about 4-5 minutes every time.

Amazing product, easy to set up and prints glossy hi-definition pictures with sticky backs for easy scrapbooking. Make sure to have your location on as well as Bluetooth for set up,it doesn't mention in the directions to have both turned on for connection, only Bluetooth.

I can't delete anything I take pictures of from the app. Photos deleted from my gallery still show up on the app. Everything else works fine. Galaxy s10+

I am now able to take pictures & print them on the go! I love being able to print pictures of my family to give to friends, without having to go to a store, hook up my device & wait for them to print. I can do all of this in the palm of my hands! Very convenient!

Needed my son's help but works now and I'm super stoked! I'm a vintage Polaroid user so the quality far surpasses what I normally am used to. Plus, printing from phone AND 4xs as much film for price of 8 Polaroids! :)

The app doesn't work on my Samsung S20 Ultra. It crashes and does not show my pictures in the gallery.

Amazing!! This works perfectly, it's easy to use and very simple! the printer itself is wonderful, and the picture I tried to print was dark originally when I downloaded it so I was worried it wouldnt recognize the musty dusty colors but no it got it perfectly! 5 stars!😁👍

App won't work on my Galaxy A21s. With my Bluetooth turned on printer is found and paired in the Bluetooth settings. When using the app the printer is unable to pair, all I see is searching for device until the printer turns itself off.

It works! I am just thrilled it works. So many apps for Bluetooth seem to give me issues. This one initially didn't connect to the printer, so I was immediately frustrated, but to my surprise it connected on the second attempt! :) Using a Samsung 10e android phone.

It is a very wonderful app. The photo quality is great and the printer is great also! When you are printing you might be concerned about the sound of it,but dont worry it is normal. I love this mini printer and will definitely use a lot. Totally recommend the app because it helps alot with printing.

Unable to connect to bluetooth quickly, app is very slow, mobile location needs to be turned on. Please improve the App.

I was having a very hard time connecting with the app. Until I turned my location on. Then the printer needed an update, and finally all connected. Much smaller prints, then you think, but decent photos. Super convenient.

Similar experience as another review, app won't work on my Samsung galaxy s9, but does work on my husband's s10. As gift was for me & he has no interest, I now have $100 of useless hardware. Tried uninstalling & reinstalling app several times, watched YouTube video by Kodiak on how to connect printer, made sure bluetooth was on but did not connect through bluetooth menu, rather connected through app as video stated. All permissions allowed. Nothing works. Please look into this. Please fix app.

Extremely poor print quality. Just wasting very expensive paper. Tried multiple phones followed all instructions for loading exactly and still very poor prints.

Okay I cannot get the printer to connect to my phone via Bluetooth it shows up in the Bluetooth box in pairs with it but it will not connect to it to where I can print it's very frustrating I have tried calling customer service I have tried getting ahold of people online nobody seems to respond I don't know if I'm doing something wrong if it's something wrong with the printer itself all of the permissions are enabled I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the app I don't know what else to do

I love portability and when it comes to printers zink is the best, no ink necessary, wireless connection with a perfectly adequate app to print with. This printer charges through USB and quotes 25 prints per full charge. At the top there is an arrow symbol at the end, simply push in the direction of the arrow and the lid will slide off. The packs with blue card are placed face down. Upon printing for the first time - and each pack after - the printer will scan the calibration sheet. AndRue

Have to unpair and repair it every time I want to print from my phone. Really annoying because even though the phone connects on its own the camra just doesn't see it...

The app won't show the preview and after only printing 1 photo (the wrongly cropped image) it often won't connect to the printer and when it does connect it won't print.

I can not connect my phone with the camera via bluetooth. I have Bluetooth on for for both the camera and my phone and nothing seems to work. My phone does not want to pick up the camera. I have installed and unistalled the app multiple times. Nothing works. I dont know what to do.

Nice intuitive app easily connected to multiple places you keep your pictures. The final image is not really true to the colours printed with the printer, which is why I gave it 4⭐.

It's amazing! It's a great Christmas present and works a treat. The pictures come out amazing and the app is so easy to set up and use! Highly recommend!!

The photos are nice and the printing is quick, but the apps formatting is off and certain print options like frames and timestamps do not apply correctly

Had to restart my phone to get it to sync up but I love it! Magic!! Best gift ever!! I can now print pictures that fit in my baby book for little Josie.

The app cant detect my phone, even though my phone is able to pair with the printer. now i can only print via share by bluetooth through app instead of the "print" function in the app
