WordPress Comes To iPhone
Do you have an iPhone? Are you a blogger? Then you're going to love this news - there's now a WordPress app for iPhone available for download from the iTunes App Store. The software lets you update your WordPress blog from anywhere. We're not forgiving Apple for that MobileMe nonsense just yet, but we have to admit, this is pretty good stuff.
WordPress on iPhone
The new WordPress App for iPhone supports both WordPress.com installations as well as self-hosted Wordpress.org blogs that are version 2.5.1 and above.
The app includes the following features:
- Embedded Safari previews of posts
- Full support for tags & categories
- Photo support for both camera phone pics and library photos
- Support for multiple blogs
- Ability to password protect a post, save as draft, or mark for later review
- Auto-recovery feature recovers posts interrupted by phone calls
You can see WordPress on the iPhone in action in the video below or check out screenshots here:
More information can be found on iphone.wordpress.org where you can review the Frequently Asked Questions and/or report issues with the application.

This is terrific. I was hoping that WP would step up to the plate (again!) and provide this sort of app. Thanks Automattic!

The only thing missing is an easy way to add links to posts. As of now, you have to type them in manually. Really sucks for looooong urls. Here's where copy and paste would be a life-saver. Otherwise, A+

Basic, but it gets the job (of composition) done.

25 million downloads in 10 days. Sounds like apple is doing something right. Wordpress is one of the most sought after from bloggers. Kudos to WP for a quick app.
