Reviewed by The Bee’s Knees blogger J. Bean: “It’s an extremely easy app to use, and it has pretty much everything you need to write a post. You can upload photos, include links, and even edit the position, size, family, and color of your font. Once you’re finished writing your post, you can save and preview it. You can save a local draft, meaning it saves just to the app; or save an online draft, meaning it saves to the app and to your drafts on your blog. Save and create a new post, or discard the post completely. You can even set up and post to more than one blog at a time.”

Reviewed by jessicadally: “I primarily use this when I need to upload pictures from an event while at an event. While this app is a bit slow on the uptake (or upload) it’s worth it to have readily available on your phone if you ever use Flickr. More importantly if you’re at a conference it’s likely that they will use this tool to aggregate all the pictures taken at the conference (or event) so if you’d like to be included then this is the app for you.”
