## Review summary

Sharpdesk Mobile shows promise for easy wireless printing and scanning to Sharp MFPs from iOS, with quick device discovery and good support for printing attachments and photos. However, reliability is inconsistent: PDFs and some file types fail to print, updates are needed for iOS compatibility, discovery over VLAN is unreliable, and app integration with other apps is weak. Overall, functional yet frequently unreliable for many users.

### Pros

- Easy wireless printing and scanning to Sharp MFPs from iOS devices.
- Prints attachments and office documents (Word, Excel) and photos without cumbersome workarounds.
- Fast device discovery over Wi‑Fi, often finding printers immediately.
- Recent updates have improved usability, including printing from iPad.

### Cons

- Printing sometimes stops after starting (especially with PDFs), causing documents not to print.
- Major compatibility issues with iOS updates (crashes or non-functionality after updates to iOS 7/8/9/11).
- Printer discovery problems on networks (difficulty finding printers across VLANs or in certain setups).
- Poor app-to-file/app integration (open-in/share-to features missing or blank, limited export options to other apps).
- Lack of printer user authentication support, causing issues for secured environments.
