The App is great…
there is only one thing I miss…
when taking a picture there needs to be an option to have the picture rotate or automatically change to the phones direction

@ GaMerZ

I managed to register an account via iTunes on the PC. And once you complete an initial sync of the PC + iPhone, you’re good to go. You don’t need a US account for App Store, the restriction only applies to buying music and album via iTunes. I’m from Malaysia by the way.

Cheers

@Mike Wendland: chill out! I’m sure they are working on the issues, they’ve posted updates in the faq and known issues… I’ve had some problems too but I don’t think they’re going to reply to every single comment they get…

I am sure they are and will be updates in due course. Given the speed of app updates in the App Store, we should try to be patient.

That’s good news that it works with 2.6! Just wish they’d give me some suggestions for getting mine to work. Any word on whether they are working on an update to the iPhone app anytime soon?

Not true. WPforiPhone works on my WP2.6 site. The only problem is, it doesn’t play well with .htaccess/.htpasswd system. Had to deactivate it.

It’s been two days since I have tried to post these issues on the WP iPhone blog under problems and contact… my comments are still just moderated and there is no answer.. what a disappointment. Near as I can tell, the iPhone app doesn’t work at all on WP2.6. But there’s absolutely no response from anyone at WP to my repeated pleas for help. And since they won’t publish my post describing the glitch, I can’t even get helpful ideas from the WP community.

When I try to set it up, it spins for awhile, then displays “NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 76.”

Works great for me so far.. just wish there was a way to manage comments!

I can’t get the WP iPhone app to work on two of my blogs running 2.6
It works fine on one running WP 2.5
It recognizes the 2.6 blogs but just spins and spins
Anyone else have similar problems? Absolutely no response from WP on this.

Two issues identified:
1) Can not enter blog sites with access control using .htpasswd/.htaccess files. No problem for ecto though.
2) Can not access extended blog text field.

I keep getting the error 5 too AND I added the trailing slash. V. disappointing.

Problems here, too… it finds my blogs but the little wheel just keeps spinning… I’ve posted the issues on the WP iPhone blog and support area but no response…

Excellent app! It’s extremely useful, but there’s one glitch I’ve discovered:

I can save and edit new posts from the iPhone without any problem, but opening up any post that I published from the desktop causes the WP app to crash. It happens with every post generated from the desktop but never from an iPhone post.

I’m self-hosting WordPress 2.5 - not sure if anyone else is having a problem.

Other than that, this is an outstanding app!

I downloaded, setup my blog, and posted a test entry (which I deleted already). All worked fine & I did not run into any problems. I am using an iPod Touch on a WiFi network. Perhaps some of the problems is using the cell network (just a thought). Also, it would be nice to delete a post within the WordPress App.
