### 1/5 — Absolute trash

*2022-06-03, version 3.0.3*

I used this app before and now it uses that crap Wordpress which has been defined as the worlds worst.  Do not use this app it is absolute garbage.  No longer able to connect with google blogger accounts.

### 5/5 — Illuminex strikes again!!

*2020-08-04, version 3.0.2*

As usual, illuminex solves some problems we were just getting used to.  I may even blog myself now ...

### 1/5 — Extremely disappointed

*2013-12-06, version 2.1.0*

No auto capitalization for first word of sentence. 

Deletes unpublished posts. 

Not intuitive at all. Terrible user interface. 

No way that I've seen for italics, bold type. 

$10 is a ripoff.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2013-10-31, version 2.1.0*

This app is useable, but just barely.  

- iBlogger PUTS A NOTICE AT THE END OF EACH POST to advertise itself, without asking or informing you and without any way to stop it.  In an app of this cost, that is completely unacceptable.

- Pictures are not handled very well, seem to publish differently than they appear in the editor sometimes.

- The editor doesn't do the auto-capitalization that is expected when typing text on the iPhone.  This is a huge pain.

There are other annoyances, but those are the main ones.  I tried iBlogger because my bogging service's custom app (which was also poor) disappeared from the App Store.  Sadly disappointed.

### 1/5 — Absolutely crap!! Don't buy!!

*2011-06-28, version 2.0.2*

I can't believe I payed out for this! I was really happy when I found the app but when i added by blogspot account it all seemed fine but when I went to publish a post it won't let me and just keeps coming up with error! Ive turned the phone off, reset my wifi even removed the app and re-installed it and it still keeps saying the same thing! What a waste of money!

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2011-06-26, version 2.0.2*

Just bought current version June 25th -- App does not stay open for more than a few seconds. Support forum is useless. What is the deal?

### 1/5 — I hoped for so much...

*2011-06-04, version 2.0.2*

The potential of this app is compromised by the image size issue.
No matter what options are chosen the image is published full size.
I'd like to be able to have the ability to add more than one image to a post.
All in all a bit of a disappointment really.

O.S.M. B:53

### 3/5 — Inaccessible

*2011-05-12, version 2.0.2*

App is poorly labeled for use with voiceover

### 3/5 — The apps JUST ok

*2011-04-29, version 2.0.2*

There's nothing really special that names this app stand out. I wish j could post to my tumblr from it but I can't... That and twitter/FB integration. This app costs too much not to have that when cheaper blogging apps provide those things.

### 1/5 — Latest update has ruined this app

*2011-04-26, version 2.0.2*

This update has completely ruined images in blogs. Prior to this I could upload images and they'd be a decent size. My text would wrap nicely to the right of the image and all was well. 

Now my images are huge and can't be re-sized. Useless. I can no longer blog on the move unless I want hideously ugly blog posts with enormous pictures on. 

Please fix asap! I paid £5.99 for this and it's now useless!
