Wordpress iPhone App Review

Posted by: john In: web

wordpress_icon I’m just trying out this new app for the iPod Touch that allows some basic ways to manage a Wordpress blog. So far I can write a add/edit posts as well as pages. Can also manage any comments that come in. No way to create styles like bold or italic. (may be able to use HTML though)

Update: You can add HTML formatting but you have to do it by hand (no WYSIWYG) which is a real pain with the touch keyboard.

Just added a picture but I’m not sure how it is going to be placed into the post. (will update later)

Update: Adding pictures is as easy selecting the image and hitting next. But there is no way to add an image to a certain area. Like the image above I had to go back in and add later. The app sticks all the images at the bottom which is fine for basic editing.

That’s it for now. Will post link to app in iTunes tomorrow as well. (Download now from iTunes)

wordpress_01 main screen when you setup a blog. You can setup multiple blogs.

wordpress_02 Showing the posts that can be edited. You can even save a local draft to update later

Interface to add pictures to blog. If I had more pictures in this post at the time, they would all display here. (also very nice)

The actual interface to writing or editing a blog post.
