We’re pleased to announce that WordPress for Android is now available in the Android Market. The initial release has focused on giving you the ability to manage your blog while on the go.
Features include the ability to:
- Configure and manage multiple blogs
- Comment moderation including the ability to reply to comments
- Create and Edit Posts including categories, tags and photos
- Create and Edit Pages
- Get notified of new comments in the Android notification bar
Here is a brief video showing the app in action:
Users of the popular wpToGo app for Android will feel right at home in WordPress for Android 1.0, as the source from wpToGo has been used as the foundation for the WordPress app. wpToGo will be discontinued as all development efforts move forward with the Open Source WordPress for Android app. If you are interested in contributing to the development efforts, please visit our dev site at dev.android.wordpress.org.
So grab the new app by visiting the download page and if you have questions or issues visit the forums to get help or suggest new features.
Very Cool! I’ve been waiting on this!
This is great, I know a few people that will be very happy with a droid app for their blogs!
Awesome – Thank you for unchaining me from my desk!
Great news! Have been using wpToGo a long time…
Congrats Dan! The app is looking better than ever. I’m glad the comment moderation was given an upgrade.
Woo! Very excited about this.

Very nice indeed. Tried it immediately. Support for custom fields would be the icing on the cake.

I’ve been using wpToGo for awhile now? This is the same thing as WordPress for Android, correct? Looks the same.
@scott — the WordPress for Android app is a continuation of the WpToGo development now under an official WordPress banner: http://danroundhill.com/2010/02/02/wordpress-for-android-1-0-released/

Sounds like you need to enable XML-RPC for that blog, under Settings -> Writing
You need to test your site. It presents a mobile version when visiting from an Android phone, which effectively hides the download link!
Why not just display a QR code ?
Hi there,
We got that fixed, it shows the full site now. Thanks for the heads up!
[...] What I had written above was old news! The new news is that the continuation of developing wpToGo, the team behind this application has released a newer version of wpToGo now known as WordPress for Android 1.0. The price for this application is also $0! Check out the demo video of WordPress for Android 1.0 after the jump! Source. [...]

Okay, dumb question, is there any way to get the source code for this app? I know you can see it on http://android.trac.wordpress.org, but I want to do an SVN check out so I don’t have to download everything one at a time, but whenever I go to check it out (at http://android.svn.wordpress.org) it tells me I need to enter a password.
http://android.svn.wordpress.org/ is the url you are looking for

Quick question…
What about security?
Are the logins encrypted? Is the session encrypted? How secure is this?
I love the idea and am thinking of buying an Android, but I’d like to know my site is secure even when logging in from my phone.

Is there a way to determine where in the post the photos go rather than all at the end? I saw someone who posted from an iphone and her photos were where they belonged throughout the post.
Yes, when in your blog view with the three tabs at the top, select menu -> blog settings. You can then select if you’d like the image above or below the text.
If I’m understanding you correctly, the pictures would still be either ALL at the top or ALL at the bottom, right? No way to insert picture, text, picture, text, etc.? Thanks!
Yes, it is either all images above or all below.
this app needs notification options (i.e. sounds/vibrate)

Installed 1.0.2 from Android market on my Nexus One.
Generally speaking, it is awesome…
An incompatibility issue to report:
It does not work well with WP2Laconic plugin. If “Publish” is clicked, and then send to my WP blog, will crash WP 1.0.2.
The post is already posted but the URI generated by WP2Laconic is crashed and the “twitter” push to my laconic site is incomplete.

Its worked great thanks until now when I wanted to save but not publish, to return to later as something happened I needed to react to.
Post saved as a local draft but I can’t seem to open it to edit and post? What haven’t I worked out?
You can long click on the local draft to edit it again!
When I try to log onto my site via the app for Droid I keep getting this error message:
“the application WordPress (process org.wordpress.android) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Why do I get this error ?
emailed you to figure out your issue…
I had this same issue. Did you find a solution?? This app worked for a few days, then I started getting this error message?

I can’t get this to post correctly.
WP-hosted site, can view old posts via Android (HTC Desire). Can create a new one, hit publish and it says it’s done it – but when I try to view the new post via PC or handset I get a 404: not found error. Have uninstalled and reinstalled Android client.
Anyone have any ideas?
That’s great news. Loved WpToGo and will install this right away. Thank you! Keep up the good work!
