New WordPress App for iPhone

• Posted by B Jones on July 22nd, 2008 - Comment on this Post »

WordPress released a new application for mobile blogging for iPhone.

As a matter of fact, I’m using it right now It was was pretty easy to set up and start this new post. Another initial observation is that compared to writing a post in Safari for iphone, this is a piece of cake.

The one thing that I’m not sure about is adding images. I’ve added two pictures to this post, but when I check the preview, I can’t see them. It just says that there are two images attached at the end of the post.

Again, this is my first time using this app, but there is one feature that I would really love to see. That’s automatic spell check, where misspelled words get the little red underline.

Otherwise, this free WordPress app for iPhone is very nice (and possibly excelent, depending on how it handles the pictures I attached.)

Edit: ok. So with images, it seems as if they are added to the very bottom of the post, and are only uploaded and processed after you save as a real draft, and not a local draft.

Screen Captures

This one has nothing to do with WP, but this app is making me realize just how bad iPhone needs cut, copy and paste functionality.
