With WordPress for iOS, you have the power to publish in the palm of your hand. Draft a spontaneous haiku from the couch. Snap and post a photo on your lunch break. Respond to your latest comments, or check your stats to see what new countries today’s visitors are coming from.
WordPress for iOS is an Open Source project, which means you too can contribute to its development. Learn more at https://apps.wordpress.com/contribute/.
WordPress for iOS supports WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress.org sites running WordPress 4.0 or higher.

What’s New
Version 22.5
If your site uses a block-based theme, you can now edit your site’s home page directly from the Pages list. Raised hands emoji.
We solved an issue around setting links to open in a new tab. When typing text after this link, you can now undo and redo the text without any issues.
Tap-to-edit is now available for all nested block types—no more tapping through every nesting level to reach a specific piece of content.
Speaking of nesting, we also fixed a bug where merging a list item into a paragraph would remove any nested text for that list item.
Finally, we’ve updated the design of disabled cells so it’s easier to tell when a cell isn’t in use.
Ratings and Reviews
Amazing App
Free to post and design your blog.
It’s not all bad
It’s main pain point is it doesn’t show any of my plugins which makes the app fairly useless to me.
I can’t use elementor to edit my site, so I can’t edit it at all.
If you’re just using it for blogging, it should be 80% of what I would want.
I’m not blogging and want to manage my plugins, so the app is fairly useless to me.
Several problems
1. Site Switcher sometimes fails. An iOS Shortcut where WordPress Site A is set to open eventually leads to the editor of Site B (which you opened last time). Although Site Switcher displays Site A, when you click the Add Post button, what comes up may not be the editor of Site A but that of the site you last added a post to. You have to manually select the right site again in My Site. 2. The Site Switcher doesn’t display favicons if you just put a favicon.ico file in the main directory. It only recognizes the favicon you set up through theme customization. When you upload a favicon through Site Switcher, PNGs lose transparent backgrounds. 3. Removing Classic Editor is a bad idea. HTML Mode with Syntax Highlighting is a must for many WordPress users. I myself rely on HTML Mode 90% of my blogging time. 4. Post Settings should be enriched. Some plug-ins, such as Limit Modified Date, cannot display under post settings. Custom Fields are not supported in the app, either. So 50% of the time I still need to log in to Dashboard in the web app.
