I’ve been using the WordPress for BlackBerry App since I started writing here at The Cellular Guru. Up to this point, the WordPress app really hasn’t been feature-rich. It has been a simple and convenient tool to get the job done. Now WordPress for BlackBerry has been updated to version 1.2. It isn’t a big update but it does have some nice new added features. Unfortunately, it didnt’t have some of the features I was hoping for, like viewing and selecting from your list of most used tags, but I’m glad to see that the app seems to be moving in the right direction. I’m sure we’ll see many more useful features in future updates. Hit the jump for further details.

So what’s new in version 1.2:

  • Ability to show comprehensive site stats for WordPress.com sites and for self-hosted sites running the WP.com stats plugin
  • Ability to add audio recordings to a post/page
  • Ability to post media files that are not tied to post/page
  • Ability to add a signature on posts created from the mobile app
  • “1- click” share to WordPress within the native BlackBerry Browser and File Explorer
  • Improvements on GPS support
  • Redesigned GUI with touch support

The app now supports the following languages:

  • English
  • Italian
  • Finnish [Thanks Apuasi]
  • French [Thanks Yann Nave]
  • Indonesian [Thanks Kate of Pixel Insert]
  • German [Thanks Frank Wessel]
  • Portuguese (Portugal) [Thanks José Fontainhas]
  • Japanese [Thanks Nao]
  • Spanish [Thanks danivloven]
