\"Version<\/a>We\u2019re pleased to announce that version 1.6 of WordPress for BlackBerry is now available on the RIM App World! The update is packed with new features to make your mobile blogging experience even better.<\/p>\n

What’s New?<\/h3>\n

Dashboard + Action Bar<\/strong>
\nEverything you want to do, all in one place. The Dashboard is the first thing you see when launching the app and it provides one-tap access to most features available in the app. Write new Posts and Pages, publish a Photo, check your Stats, moderate Comments, access the WordPress Dashboard, and much more.<\/p>\n

The action bar at the top of your screen allows you to quickly change between blogs and refresh Posts, Pages, and Comments on the blog selected. It makes it easy to change the blog you’re posting to, as well as seeing if there are any pending comments.<\/p>\n

Quick Photo<\/strong>
\n\"QuickWant to post a picture quickly? We added a Quick Photo button that takes you right to the camera so you can capture the moment and instantly attach the photo to a new post. Quick Photo will use the Image Post Format (if your theme supports it) and you can even post pictures that you\u2019ve already taken.<\/p>\n

WordPress.com Reading Made Easy<\/strong>
\n\"WordPress.comIf you publish to one or more WordPress.com blogs in your WordPress for BlackBerry app you\u2019ll now see a Read button in the Dashboard. This is the fastest way to keep up with posts from blogs you\u2019re following on WordPress.com. Here\u2019s how it works: if you go to any WordPress.com blog and click the Follow button in the Toolbar, you\u2019ll not only get email notifications about new posts from that blog, but they\u2019ll also show up right in the app!<\/p>\n

You can manage the blogs you\u2019re following in your WordPress.com dashboard, where you can also add custom RSS feeds.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t follow any blogs yet? In the app\u2019s \u201cRead\u201d screen you\u2019ll also find Freshly Pressed, listing some of the most interesting on WordPress.com posts. Or you can tap the little arrow button and select from a multitude of interesting Topics, including Art, Technology, Books, and many more.<\/p>\n

The Read function is in Beta and will be improved over time, so we\u2019d very much like to hear what you like about it and what features you’d like to see next! Post a comment below or reach out to us on Twitter<\/a>. Please note that this feature is only available on devices running OS7 or higher.<\/p>\n

Localization<\/strong>
\nWe\u2019re happy to report that version 1.6 of WordPress for BlackBerry adds support for 6 more languages: Bosnian<\/em>, Hebrew<\/em>, Croatian<\/em>, Brazilian Portuguese<\/em>, Turkish<\/em>, and Simplified Chinese<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Is your language not translated yet? You can easily contribute the translation yourself, and we\u2019ll put it in the app in a future release! To get started, visit the WordPress for BlackBerry project on translate.wordpress.org<\/a> (learn more<\/a>). You don\u2019t have to translate all strings, as other people will join in to help you out.<\/p>\n
