Express Labels Mobile is a free Android and iOS app for designing, previewing and printing Brady labels from a mobile device. Users can edit with touchscreen gestures or a QWERTY keyboard, and more than 10 design guides cover formats such as flags, pipe markers, sleeves, tubes and wraps. BradyVoice lets users dictate text for blank or wrap labels, with automatic sizing and formatting. Image-to-Text OCR converts printed drawings, PDFs and handwritten notes into editable label text. The app imports spreadsheets, text files and Fluke Networks LinkWare Live data. Supported cloud storage includes Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud and OneDrive. Brady Workstation templates can be opened from local files, Dropbox or Google Drive, but LabelMark 6 templates must be edited on a PC. The app connects to compatible Brady printers by Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. It supports barcode creation, compliance labels and variable data printing, but not shipping labels. The listed mobile requirements are iOS 15.0 or later, iPadOS 15.0 or later, and Android 10.0 or later.
