I don’t have an iPhone, but it doesn’t work out too well with Monotone I hear. That’s unfortunate, because being able to publish full sized images right from the iPhone would be great.
I like the application. I have two plugins that it doesn’t play well with (Twitter Tools & Wordbook), but plugin interaction is a common bug with new apps or upgrades.
Wish list would be a WYSIWYG editing pane, since Apple doesn’t consider a cut/copy/paste buffer a priority, it’d make it a little easier to make richer HTML posts on the go.
not sure if it is only supposed to work on wordpress.com blogs, but can’t get it to jibe yet with my self-hosted blog. i’ll keep messing around.
i love your blog design. one of the best i’ve seen. reminds me of moving into a sunny house with wicked wallpaper and spackling up stuff getting ready to put my own touches on it.
I think it’s a TwitterTools Plugin issue but any time I’m writing something in the WP iPhone App and hit preview… it posts a tweet that I have a new post, with a bunk post link.
I like it!! It works wonderfully well on my iPhone. It’s getting to the point where I don’t even have to turn my Mac on anymore.
…oh and your blog design is freakin’ fantastic!
Well, speaking of iPhone Ive seen the video of Steve Jobs unveiling the new iPhone with the head-to-head video “How do you Compare”: Steve Jobs v. Bill
Gates with their big ticket tech toys.(new iPhone and xbox 360} in http://clashorama.com/index.php?id=178
I just keep making posts and making posts about making posts and all kinds of whatnot.
It is especially cool that my iphone can do this – as it sometimes has a hard time actually making and holding onto a call – it sometimes has a hard time with the phone part – whoa boy!
Now that I’ve had WordPress for iPhone installed for a couple of weeks I’ve finally written a short review (some of it on the iPhone).
You can read the full review on my blog (http://billglover.co.uk/archives/2008/09/12/684) but in summary: Well written App with some nice touches. I’m not sure though that the focus of the App should be post composition.
Not sure if my first comment went through but like Claude my local drafts folder is also showing up emty when in fact I have posts in there. Is there a way to retrieve my posts? There are numbers there indicating I ave posts but nothing shows up.
! Reviews coming in: WordPress app hits the iPhone fashionably late.

Nice one Matt
I’ve tried it out and you can see the results on my personal blog!

Like many, I waited or the 3G iPhone, so it’s not even fasionably late; it’s perfectly timed.
Better late than never! Trying it out now

I think its simple and straight forward but it has a glitch where it publishes blank posts.
great job on it though. I would like to see some uses of the actual iphone hardware like picture taking.

It’s almost like I need to get an iphone just so I can use this! Sweeeeet.
Hangs when I add my site to it…Tried deleting app and reloading, tried deleting entry, I’m on full signal wifi…Nothing…Too bad!
I’m on a self hosted setup…
awesome. best ever.
I love this application. It works very well with the new iPhone 3G.

I like the fashionably late part, especially since my typepad friends have been bragging for a while…
Cant get it to work, post that is, every time I try to it crashes or it gives me an error message, it downloaded posts fine but cannot post
Hi,
nice App so far. I would like to see support for that german thing called “umlaut”.
And maybe there is a chance to pull the tags from the blog, so i can choose from them rather than to keep them in mind.
Keep it up!
It worked nicely for me, it will be great to post my thoughts on the go. Thanks Matt.
Bravo. WP proves day in and day out that it is the most flexible, forward-thinking CMS on the planet.
I can’t get it to work either.. I get the Operation could not be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 5.)
I think it’s a TwitterTools Plugin issue but any time I’m writing something in the WP iPhone App and hit preview… it posts a tweet that I have a new post, with a bunk post link.
WEIRD

This application is the bees knees.

Matt:
On this page, it says the App is Open Source:
http://iphone.wordpress.org/credits/
But I haven’t seen anywhere to download the source at etc?
Thanks,

Paul, if you poke around you can find the SVN but we’ll more officially point to Trac and a mailing list later today.
I got an error every time i try to setup my blog. See this shot.

Nice!
My draft posts folder showed as empty, when really it’s got 12 drafts. Would be great if I could edit them with my iPhone.
Also, the big giant DELETE BLOG button is way too dangerous, in the settings section. O.M.G.!!!!!
Works like a champ on the iPod Touch. Pretty freaking cool.
