First Look: WordPress

Interesting comments. I downloaded this last night and was keen to try it out, but then I noticed that it works on 2.5.1 or higher - my blog's on 2.5. Might wait a few weeks for the bugs to be ironed out before I bother with the upgrade....

Anyone else out there notice that the "New" category in iTunes and AppStore doesn't show all new applications? I went there looking for the WordPress app and it's nowhere to be found. I had to actually search for it!

Doesn't seem fair does it.

I like the app... but, I am a little disappointed it didn't let me know it was going to create a post and then delete it to verify the blog.

I inadvertently sent several "There is a new post called $title$" emails to my subscribers!

That ought to make a few of 'em leave some nice comments!

I am loving it already! It's really exciting to have a robust and easy way to post from anywhere.

It's okay for a start, but not as feature-rich as WPhone (yet) and still pretty buggy...!

No localization support, crashes when you try using umlauts and other foreign characters, no WYSIWYG, you can't crop pics before the upload -- just to name a few glitches...

Actually I'm pretty sure they're already working on the next update, but unfortunately the way Apple allegedly "reviews" each and every app takes way too much and so it might be a while before we see a fixed version...! :(

(It's hard to believe that Apple really reviews anything in the AppStore, considering the amount of crap in there...)

Keep an eye on iphone.wordpress.org, we've already got plans for new features.

i think they've got it all wrong with this app.

i'm not going to write a whole blog post on that tiny keyboard. i might however edit a comment, or approve something in the moderation queue. i might even review / approve a pending post too.

sadly, none of those things are possible right now. still it's version 1 and it's free, that's a start i guess.

Works fine for me... with one small issue.

I have the TwitterTools plugin installed and active and if I preview my post in the WordPress iPhone app, it posts a tweet to my preview... even though it's not published.

Ontopic... does anyone know of a .APP that I can use from my laptop to simply publish to my WordPress blog? I custom a ton of app staff for my LAMP solution, but I'm looking for a Wordpress.app that allows me to push straight from my laptop vs. logging into my website, so I can write offline. Sorry .. I know it's kind of newb for an old-school like me, but been a novice until now.

It's Fork You! - yay! :0-)
