Today I wanted to learn how to use the blogger mobile app for android. First I had to remember how to do screen grabs on my phone. Only took me a couple seconds.
The entire process seems straight forward. You open the app and hit "new post" (third image below) and start typing (in the fourth image below). You can save your work (floppy icon) or just toss it (garbage pail icon).
Here is were I wanted to embed some screen shots but it looks like it will only let me attach one image? Ah, no it looks like you can attach multiple images. When editing the post just hit the last icon at the top of the editing area, that looks like stacked pictures, to pull an image from what is on your device. I'm betting the camera image lets you take a picture. I just can't place them inline or arrange their order. Hopefully they stay in order?
nope order seems almost random.
After you have saved your post you are taken to the post list screen, second image below, you can also get there from the "posts" button on the main page (third image). From there you can do actions on your lists of posts. I've been able to save and re-edit this post a couple of times. Going back to correct typos, add some text referencing the images and think about things.
At some point html tags started appearing in with the text. Not quite sure when or why. (Looks like they show up if I edit the post from the view post screen, hitting the pencil icon from image one) They seem stuck here now and I need to delete them one by one.
My intent is to do this entire post from my phone. Looks like when I'm ready to post it I can just hit the right arrow icon at the top of image four.
From the post list screen (image two) there appears to be an option to preview the post. Lets get an image of that next. So image ome is the preview.
Overall I think it works pretty easily. Lets hit the post button and see what happens....
