WordPress for iOS: Much Improved

I wrote a post a while back stating that the iOS app for WordPress was… lackluster, at best.  That was nearly a year-and-a-half ago, and it’s nice to see that the app has come a long way.  I downloaded it to test it recently, and I was happily surprised with what I found:

Taking a page from the Facebook App’s playbook has done it a world of good.  Things are streamlined, sleek, and all of the features I was hoping for are now there.  You can add video (via HTML5), different post formats, and (nearly) everything you can do on the desktop version.

Need to access your WP Dashboard? One click inside the app will log you in and take you there.  Need to check stats?  It will load and format the stats to look nice on your device.

So, if you haven’t used it in a while, give it a go again – I think you’ll be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
