You can also optionally set the image to also be included in the post content.</p> <p>Note that you’ll need WordPress 3.4.1 or greater and a theme that supports featured images in order to use this feature.</p> <h4>All-New WordPress.com Stats</h4> <p>Checking your stats from the app can be really handy, and we wanted to make it even better. When accessing stats now, you will see all of the same data that you see when at your blog’s web dashboard including Views by Country and Top Posts & Pages. If you are running a self-hosted blog and want to enable stats in the app, install the free <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849/http://jetpack.me/">Jetpack plugin</a>.</p> <h4>Reliability and Performance Improvements</h4> <p>This release also includes some great improvements to the app to make it more reliable and fast. Error messages are easier to read and understand as well. You can see the details on what was taken care of on the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849/http://android.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=closed&group=resolution&milestone=2.2">trac roadmap</a>.</p> <h3>New Contributors and What’s Next</h3> <p>Did you know that WordPress for Android is an open source project?

The Dashboard is the first thing you see when launching the app and it provides one-tap access to the most common things you use such as creating a new post or viewing stats. A new comment count ribbon shows you how many unapproved comments you have in your moderation queue. Want to post some media quickly? We added Quick Photo and Video buttons to take you right to the camera so you can shoot the moment and instantly attach it to a new post.</p> <p>Also new is the Action Bar, which allows you to quickly switch blogs, refresh content or show the Dashboard from wherever you are in the app at the time.</p> <h3>New Post Editor</h3> <div id="attachment_573" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 190px"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849/http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/editor-merged.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-573" title="editor" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849im_/http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/editor-merged.png?w=180&h=300" alt="" width="180" height="300"/></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The Post Editor</p></div> <p>The post editor has been revamped, allowing more control over the post content than ever before. A formatting toolbar has been added above the keyboard that allows for easy rich text editing and adding links. You can now add media content wherever you like and edit the Title, Caption, Placement and Size of images. The editor also is now full screen, so you can see as much of the content as possible while editing.</p> <p>We’ve also added support for Post Formats, you’ll see a drop down menu in the post editor that allows you to select the appropriate Post Format.</p> <h3>Tablet Support</h3> <p>Got an Android Tablet? We’ve got you covered! We paid special attention to large screen devices in this release. When you’re viewing Posts, Pages and Comments you will see a scrolling list of items on the left, with a detail view on the right. Many other areas of the app have been optimized for tablets including the post editor and stats.</p> <div id="attachment_511" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 624px"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849/http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/tablet-posts.png"><img class=" wp-image-511 " title="tablet-posts" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130203125849im_/http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/tablet-posts.png?w=614&h=384" alt="" width="614" height="384"/></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Browsing Posts on a Tablet</p></div> <p>We’ve also added support for the newer 7″ tablets, including the Kindle Fire (app will be available in the Amazon Appstore soon).</p> <h3>More Changes</h3> <p>In addition to these great changes above, here’s what else is new:</p> <ul> <li>Stats chart improvements</li> <li>Background post uploading</li> <li>WordPress.com Read feature improvements</li> <li>Post Status is now displayed in post list.</li> <li>Reliability improvements and more!</li> </ul> <h3>Get Involved</h3> <p>WordPress for Android is an Open Source project.
