You can export your posts in different formats using the iOS share features, so there is a way to easily get your posts out of the app - you just need to get them into your blog. It really isn’t what they do, so I suppose that is ok. Scrivener doesn’t have a publish feature. The qualification comes when you try to publish your post to your blog… I have a Scrivener project for my blog, and have folders for in-progress drafts and published posts etc which makes it easy to manage. Scrivener is more than capable for writing and managing blog posts. The question is - can it work as well for writing short-form content such as blog posts as for long form? My previous posts on Scrivener for iOS (for long form writing) will have revealed to you that I love writing in this app. Tbh I really didn’t dwell here long, as the interfaces offended me (yes, I’m that vain).

Unfortunately, none really seem to have been updated since.

They seem to all stem from a heyday when blog software had not mobile support. They offer a range of features for managing your blogs across different services.

However, the in-app preview of your post doesn’t reflect the markdown (you have to go to the web interface for that), so I decided the app had not redeemed itself. Note: I have found a solution to headings - if you turn on markdown (see later in this post) for your WordPress blog, then you can use markdown syntax to set headings in your post. I felt the UI for writing posts in the app was a bit dated, and I found the lack of headings bugged me, so I kept on my journey. You can preview your post from within the app and add images and links and so forth. Surprisingly absent is the ability to format paragraphs as being various heading levels. Basic formatting is available (bold, italics, bullets, numbers). The WordPress iOS app is decent overall, and you could certainly write posts on it fairly happily. Technically everything works, but highlight a piece of text with your keyboard or start typing and it tends to scroll to a seemingly random location. On a desktop it works well, on iOS it does not. I’ve seen numerous complaints that “the old editor was better,” but for me I’m pretty happy with the current one. The web interface for writing posts on WordPress is not too bad.

The interface is tired, and you don’t have the full range of formatting options (you can do bullets, numbers, bold, and italic. It can definitely do it, but it feels lacklustre. However, the editor isn’t great for writing posts. It isn’t too bad - especially for checking comments / notifications, checking website stats, or correcting minor mistakes. I have a WordPress blog (hosted by WordPress, which means I don’t have access to all the nice add-ons), and I was pleased to discover they had an iOS app. For these cases, online collaboration is the perfect tool to ensure everybody is on the same page.I’ve been continuing my adventures of “how much can I actually do on my iPad?” The next challenge in my list was blogging.
