Take a sneak peek at the new Tumblr iPhone app

Filed under: , ,

Tumblr is a quick and flexible blogging platform, which makes it well-suited to the iPhone. The Tumblr iPhone app has been in need of an update for some time now, though, so avid tumbloggers will be happy to hear that version 1.1 of the app has been submitted to the App Store and should be available soon. One of the developers of Tumblr for iPhone has posted a sneak preview of the new features in 1.1 on (what else?) his tumblr.

Although the flashiest new feature is video uploading, this update also addresses a lot of the gripes I have with the current version of the Tumblr app. There's finally a built-in web browser, so you don't have to go to Safari and lose your place in the dashboard every time you click a link. There's also a bookmarklet for easier tumbling, although the developer hasn't revealed how it works. Even basic posting is better, with a native editor and access to advanced options.

If you've been reluctant to use Tumblr on your iPhone because the app wasn't up to par, this update makes it look like a good time to reconsider.
