Wondering if there's a cheaper decent alternative...
Only if you want Walgreens to see what you printed. Eggplants and all
Or is it plug and play? Does Bluetooth feature need their app?
Seems less convenient if each phone has to have a special app on it to use the printer.
Not sure how else it would work though since the device seems to have very few buttons
edit: sorting reviews by most recent shows bad recent scores. multiple reports of it failing quickly and some claims of recent app update failures/not working with Apple products. ymmv?

The quality is fine. I think the look of the prints you get from sending them to Walgreens is slightly better, but what the printer puts out is plenty fine to pop in a frame or stick on grandma's fridge.
This isn't a new technology; I remember we had an expensive version of this at a university job I had in the middle 90s. It was expensive because you'd consume the three color rolls when you printed whether you were using a little or a lot of that particular color. These gadgets have made that a little less visibly painful by having it all in one cartridge so you aren't pained as much by throwing away that much "good" ink. Back then this was considered a far better archival method than ink-based printing. Whether that's improved with modern papers I have no idea.
Personally I rarely want prints in a quick turnaround so I'd rather avoid the up-front payment and $0.30 a print in favor of sending to Walgreens for anywhere from about half (normally) to a tenth as much (when they run big deals). That said we've had fun printing the occasional picture to hand to someone and in fairness I end up printing stuff I DON'T need when those sales crop up, so this would probably be a financial wash if I bought it.
Oh, another worthwhile thing to know: this sort of transfer stuff doesn't have the clogged jet issue that inkjets do. So there is some value to that up-front cost - you're less likely to be throwing away bad ink or struggling with cleaning, like I always ended up doing when I had long gaps between prints.
Edit: Also worth knowing, you have to use their app to print on the one I have. It's mediocre but not aggressively bad.
Like the Canon Selphy series.... But, will the cartridges be available years from now? If thinking long term use and ownership, Selphy
If just a few years (until whenever Kodak changes tact and dumps the line),
Kodak fine.
My last cvs one photo order was done by the time I started working on something else.
