I recently installed the WordPress for Android app. While not something entirely new I figured it would be handy to have for some those short on the go type of posts. I also thought it would be worth a comparison to the WordPress for iPhone app which I have used from my iPodTouch on occasion.
So at this point I am attempting to work with the newest version of WordPress for iOS on my iPT. While I do not wish to condemn the app because it could very well be the device, I am going to say the at this moment I wish I were on my droid.
In either case both apps offer the same features and each version is tailored to respond as one would expect an app on the respective OS should. Likewise the look and feel are respective of each environment.
One issue on iOS seems to be the lack of or intermittent auto capitalization on the start of a new sentence which is rather annoying. This is something that I can work around but wish I didn’t have to.
