Brother iPrint&Scan vs instax UP!

Brother iPrint&Scan lets owners of supported Brother machines print from and scan to the machine using mobile devices or computers. On mobile, it can print photos, documents, and web pages; the Android FAQ also lists Gmail and cloud services. Depending on the platform, scans can be saved to the device or cloud storage, emailed, or opened in other apps. The iOS listing names Dropbox, OneDrive, and Evernote for printing, and iCloud as a scan destination. On supported newer models, mobile features may include image editing, fax sending and preview, copy preview, and machine status. Windows and macOS provide detailed scan controls, and users can save settings as reusable Workflows. The app is free, with listed output formats of PDF and JPEG, and support for OCR and ADF. Brother lists Windows 7 or later and macOS 10.10 or later. Printing and scanning are not available on every Brother machine; mobile devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network as the machine.

instax UP! is a mobile app for scanning instax prints into digital collections that users can organize and share. It supports mini, SQUARE, and WIDE photos, including decorated prints, and lets users remove reflections or adjust contrast, brightness, saturation, and warmth. Scans can be viewed in Box View or List View and sorted by date and time, location, or keyword. Albums group images by theme, while instax Days shows them on a calendar. The app can import movies shot on a hybrid instax camera, as well as photos and movies from compatible instax Link, mini Evo, and mini LiPlay apps. Collections can be shared through social media and messaging services, and registration is not required. The app is free on Android and iOS; users are responsible for data usage charges. The FAQ lists Android 10.0 or later and iOS 14.0 or later, while a notice says version 2.3.0 or later requires iOS 16 or later. Deleting the app deletes scans and other data, so users need Data backup and Data transfer to move their data to a new phone.
