Test post from my iPhone. 

WordPress finally updated the iOS app to something useable. At least as far as image editing is concerned. That’s been one of my biggest beefs with the app since it came out: I had no way to add captions to, or edit settings with pictures. 

But now…

Yay!

Now if they can just make the image auto-linked to itself. (I’m submitting that request to the developers.)

I’m not sure I like the WYSIWYG editor, as it adds all sorts of ugly HTML code in it. (Another code request…)

And maybe auto populating the tags entry field would be nice. 

But hey, at least I feel that I can now blog from my phone way better than I could before. Not that I’ve been really blogging these days anyway…

BTW, this is what the code for this post looks like. So messy:

  1. I have not enjoyed the iOS app but haven’t given the latest version a whirl. I shall have to see if I have an enjoyable experience as well.

    And not to make you blush too much but my gods you’re looking quite fine these days. Woofety woof woof.

    1. Nor have I. I only had it as a “just in case” kind of thing. I read a few posts about the upgrade of the app, so I thought I’d give it another try. And for the most part it’s finally what I would consider “useable”, especially compared to the native WP web interface.

      And *blush*. Thank you, kind sir. 😉
