WordPress app for iPhone

photoTonight WordPress released an open-source app for the iPhone to post to and manage your WordPress blog. The app can be downloaded from http://iphone.wordpress.org

This post is a test of that app. And I have to admit — I love it! Well designed and easy to set up. It is easily able to manage multiple blogs.

I love the ability to take a picture and insert it into a blog post! I took the screenshot shown to the left and was able to insert it very easily by tapping on the photo icon in the bottom bar. I hand edited the HTML to put the text below to the left of the image, and change the size shown.

You can preview your post before it is published too. Now if Apple would give us copy and paste, editing would be a whole lot easier! This is what I’ve been waiting for since I got my iPhone!

The app did crash on me once after I saved the first draft of this post locally, but when I came back into the app, everything was there, so no harm no foul.

Great job WordPress team, and thank you from WordPress bloggers everywhere!
