Customers are impressed with the IVY Cliq+ Instant Film Camera's picture quality and ease of use, frequently praising its compact size and lightweight design. Many appreciate the convenience of the Bluetooth connectivity and accompanying app for printing and editing photos. However, some users note that the battery life could be improved and that the viewfinder is not always easy to use.
The Canon IVY Cliq+ combines taking a picture and printing it. Yes, a two in one with the size a little bigger than a credit card. The Canon IVY Cliq+ lets you take your pictures and print anywhere. No need to have to have a separate printer. This does make the Canon IVY Cliq+ a sturdy weight in a small size. A lot of tech is housed in the Cliq+ including easy load Zink film. The Cliq+ is great at selfies and also has a very striking high tech look to it. I had the sapphire blue and it was stunning. • I first downloaded the Canon mini printer app. This app is very intuitive to what you want to do with the Cliq+ and Bluetooth. While I was downloading the app, I had the Canon IVY Cliq+ charging. It took no time at all to get the electric juice so I could take and print pictures and the Bluetooth connected. • The film is loaded in the back of the Cliq+ after easily removing a panel. The film of choice is the Canon Zink paper. Zink paper has all the ink you need to print colorful and bright picture on that Zink paper. It is great not having to carry around ink for the pictures. • 2”x 3” Zink paper is the only size the Cliq+ will take and is loaded with those dimensions in the back panel. It is great tech to have paper that includes the ink. One important this to note: Put the blue card facing down and the Zink paper facing up. The blue card sets up the printer and cleans it heads. • I was able to print 3 pictures before the battery got low. I also took several pictures as a point and shoot camera too. It has a wide angle lens in a 8MP image sensor. I didn’t expect the Cliq+ to work so well with just taking pictures, then printing them. The optical viewfinder is clear and prints pretty much what you see. Some of other features on the Cliq+ camera include a built in flash, autofocus, timer, auto exposure making it more than just a printer, it is a great camera as well. Pictures came out clear with great color saturation and sharp definition. And of course the pictures are stickers when you pull off the back! • One other unique feature is the Cliq+ you can print from your smartphone via Bluetooth from the Canon mini print app. I had several old pictures on my phone for a while that I thought would make a great picture. I was able to print effortlessly from my smartphone to the Canon IVY Cliq+. I posted the picture with the guitars that I printed. It was a bit bright in the room but thought the picture came out well (the picture in real life looks better). The fruit picture was point and click. That picture printed out nice too. • Bluetooth also allows you to customize your pictures, with borders, symbols, texts and more. This is the kind of fun you can have hanging out with your friends , parties or events. It is great to have these options on such a simple camera. Your smartphone shows what options you have added to a picture and helps you select the picture you want. • For selfies the Cliq+ has a ring around the lens (8-LED) that enhances the brightness for these kinds of pictures. There is also a 2” selfie mirror on the lens that guides you that makes a real difference in the placement of the picture. • You can take about 25 pictures on a single charge (stored on a mircoSD card slot on the Cliq+), but I didn’t quite take that many. I took about 10 pics and printed 3 of them. Zink paper leaves no finger print and a glossy finish. • If you need space on your Cliq+ you can insert a microSD card in the provided spot. Save your pictures and then print them later. Another great enhancement for the Canon IVY Cliq+. • There are only a few buttons on the Canon IVY Cliq+. They tell you when the camera is printing, after a picture is taken and the variety of option in the look of the picture. These are pretty self explanatory but a quick read card in the box gives you information on what to do and how easy the Cliq+ works. • The only thing that limits the Canon IVY Cliq+ is the battery life. I believe it does pretty well with printing 3 pictures or 25 point and shoot. But it won’t take long to accomplish that, so it is always good to charge it from the mini USB to USB cable whenever it’s handy. I really am enjoying this Canon IVY Cliq+. It is packed with tons of features and pretty amazing picture quality. The biggest surprise for me was the point and shoot. It surpassed my expectations and the pictures printed out very well. The printer inside the Cliq+ was excellent and quickly printed out pictures. The Canon IVY Cliq+ is a great new Tech product that combines printing, shooting pictures with a variety of options.

My ten year old loves her new camera. It prints right from the cameras itself. The color is pretty. Perfect for a young girl or boy that likes to take pictures.

I love it! I use it for my film journal and it’s so convenient. So light I get scared of dropping it. The app is really easy to use. Overall one of the best purchases ever.
