Hello, WordPress users! Version 4.4 of the WordPress for Android app is now available in the Google Play Store! This version comes packed with some major improvements.
What’s New
Major improvements
- New look for Pages and Posts: A new design for Posts and Pages makes it easier to view and edit your content.
- A better reading experience: The Reader now displays user-generated content in Merriweather, a crisp, more modern font that’s easier on your eyes.
- Two-column view for Stats on tablets: Larger tablets now have two columns in Stats, just like when you check them on your desktop.
Bug fixes
- Incorrect trash post: Before this fix, trashing a post in the post list, caused the post below it to also get trashed when tapped. This is now fixed.
- Many more!
