  1. 5/5Dislike the new update

    I don’t like the new update. Haven’t used this app in a bit, so I don’t know what it updated. However, it’s not nearly as good as it once was. It takes longer to print photos because I can’t pick the layout I want for my photos to automatically arrange into. I want to be able to print two photos on a page like I used to and did them all at once, but now I have to print 2 photos at a time. It’s super frustrating and I don’t even want to print photos anymore because I can’t be bothered to print all the photos I have to print in that way. It genuinely makes me want to buy a whole new set up because it’s so inconvenient.

  2. 1/5Disappointed with the New Version – Lost Key Features

    I’ve been using the SELPHY app for years with my Canon 1300 printer, and it used to be an absolute dream for my scrapbook projects. The N-up layout feature allowed me to print 4 photos per page automatically—quickly and effortlessly. It was perfect for creating albums and collages without wasting time. Unfortunately, the recent update has removed this essential functionality. Now, instead of selecting multiple photos and having them arranged automatically, I have to do it one at a time. Who has time for that? It’s incredibly frustrating and a major step backward for anyone who relies on this feature for creative projects like scrapbooking. I’ve tried every option in the updated app, but nothing replicates the simplicity and ease of the old N-up feature. Canon, please bring back the automatic multi-photo layout functionality. Until then, I’m left scrambling to find a workaround or considering alternative apps and printers. This app was once perfect—please fix it.

  3. 1/5No connection through app

    For context I am running IPhone 16Pro (iOS 26.4.2) and since November 2025 I bought the Canon’s CP1500. Since then I’ve been facing a bug that doesn’t allow me to connect the printer to the app. Since November they’ve updated the app(4.3.1) and the printer(Ver1.0.7.0) and the problem still persists. When I try to print photos on the SELPHY app it always fails to connect to the printer. And then error pop tab saying the printer is not connected to power or wifi connection error. But neither is true because the printer has stable connection to power and WiFi works because I’m able to bypass this error through printing photos on iPhones photos app. This makes the printer usable but it’s very disappointing I’m locked out of key features only available in Canon’s SELPHY app. Most of these features that incentivized me to buy the printer. Without them I can’t recommend anyone buy this printer. Having such a detrimental software issue makes without any solution feels like getting scammed. CANON PLEASE FIX THIS!

  4. 2/5Not chancing it

    This is not an app I use often, but when I do, sometimes I have difficulty getting it to connect to the printer. After a few tries I am usually successful. One thing I have learned however is that when a developer changes the design of the app icon, read the reviews before taking an update. Based on what I’m seeing here, I won’t be updating for now. The last thing I need is more trouble trying to connect to the printer. On another note, Dear App Developer, When your product is known by a specific name, that name NEEDS to appear on the app icon. Do NOT use your internal acronyms that make no sense to your users. It may be SPL to you all day long, but to me I can’t tell if this is an app I use for work with the same acronym or if I downloaded something I didn’t realize. I’m certainly not going to associate SPL with my little Canon printer. I’m looking for the app that says SELPHY. Why? Because that’s the name of your product associated with the app!

  5. 2/5Pretty bad - connection wise

    Trying for hours after getting my SELPHY printer, only ONCE was I able to actually connect to the printer and print a photo using this app. I eventually gave up and called it a night. The next day, I took a different approach. Using the app, I made my edits to the photos I wanted to print, and saved them to a separate folder. I then used software called CopyTrans to connect my iPhone to a PC and copied the photos onto the PC to an SD card. I then put the SD card into the SELPHY and was able to print the photos from the printer itself. While it involves a few extra steps, this method works every time for me. This app isn’t too bad for editing the photos - it’s pretty decent actually. Its high points are overshadowed by its poor ability to print directly from the app to the printer. Canon should really do better than selling a printer with sub-standard software support.
