Misled
Bought the wireless printer only to find out that connecting wirelessly will cost me $60 a year. Ripped off.
★★★★ luyoii 2/6/2026 v2.9
Payment plan after buying the sprin
Why they make you pay a plan after you buy it it like paying for a phone bill really not worth it
★★★★ asdfjk; 11/26/2025 v2.9
Scam. The app doesn’t work
They get you to go for a 3-day free trial then can recognize the devices on the same Wi-Fi make sure to cancel so they can’t charge you when you inevitably can’t print anything
★★★★ Richoats 10/23/2025 v2.8
Sucker App
Free for 1 week then $9.99 a week?!? For a stupid printer app?!? You people are high out of your minds.
★★★★ sammm99324 10/7/2025 v2.8
Terrible
Charged me for a “free trial” and then tried to send me to talk to apple about it. Sent me a link to buy apple products. Customer service was no help at all.
★★★★ Princess Penelope 23 9/3/2025 v2.5
Not paying for something I can get for free
I downloaded thinking this was the HP smart app and it’s not and to use it you have to pay. The HP app is free.
★★★★ Chjrfhu 7/22/2025 v2.4
Ap unusuable
I alteady pay for the HO Smart app, but this app will not allow me to print from my iphone without ANOTHER subscription, which I will not pay for.

Trouble trouble trouble
I’ve had nothing but trouble since I started with my All In plan. Before that I had All In One and instant ink for many years without a glitch, but since I am in the All In plan, nothing but trouble. Though I was getting my instant ink, when I lost my wallet and had to get a new credit card number, I was unable to credit card number onto my account, no matter how I tried, and now I am cut off from being able to print. I’m also worried that I’m going to be in trouble for breaking contract, but my hands have been tied.. Needless to say, I am very frustrated. It seems like there is no way out. I’ve spent many hours on the phone with HP techs without a solution. I wish somehow you could help. I do question myself whether I did not set up the printer properly at the outset, but I don’t know how to correct that. It seems as if my printer is not connected. I wish I could talk with a higher up in HP.

Does Nothing
Literally does nothing. No help at all. Costs 70 bucks a year too. Trash.
★★★★ rosslink 1/26/2025 v2.3

Not good
Very dissatisfied
★★★★ Yadusky 11/19/2024 v2.2
Garbage App unless you want to pay $10/week
Totally unusable unless you are willing to pay a ridiculously high WEEKLY fee. Tried to use it. Deleted almost immediately.
★★★★ user turned protester 10/4/2024 v2.0
Scam
The whole point of this app is to print things and it tricks you into think that it’s free. Every single feature is locked behind a 10 dollar/month paywall. Complete scam, delete the app, find something that can do the same for free. It would be a 0/5 if I could because they are money hungry pigs.
★★★★ tony0071 9/5/2024 v2.0

★★★★★ Alien Alex 5/14/2026 v2.9
