But not all the way. Scheduled posts only post IF and WHEN someone comes to your page, according to the tech help anyway. If they don’t post then, that means setting a time for a post to go public on its own is dysfunctional entirely. I don’t get enough traffic to watch and see if something I set up posts on its own after a visit to know for sure. The discover feed doesn’t update. I’ve had the same articles displayed for more than five days. Not that others haven’t been published, just that jetpack is pushing this set that I have already read. I have to scroll through nearly 50 to find a new one at this point. Feeds should update regularly. Not pick a handful of writers and push their same pieces multiple days in a row. And no I don’t care if they paid to be at the top, if someone has already seen it, scrolled past or read, an updated feed should be presented. It updates for followed pages but not the general public and golly that makes it hard to read anything new. Also, no longer allows me to delete followers from the ap. I have to jump online to do so. Used to let me. Then suddenly stopped. Is the ap really helpful if it doesn’t do what the site can?
Developer Response Hey! Thanks for your review and for bringing this to our attention! It sounds like something isn’t working quite right for you, and we’d love to investigate further to help sort it out. Could you reach out to us at mobile-support@automattic.com? We’ll dig into this and do our best to improve your experience.

As an editor for Wordpress posts it’s great. It’s essentially a mirror image of the in-browser interface and it allows editing of tags, categories, and featured images. It has access to your phone’s photos as well as your Wordpress library. It also allows you to respond to comments and review your site stats. A good addition would be the ability to filter out ads from Wordpress sites you follow, like Apple Reader View, as well as the ability to see what search queries led to your page. All around an excellent app.

Really enjoy using this app on iphone and ipad but there are a couple glitches that are really frustrating. 1. For a few of the blogs I’m subscribed to, I can’t see their posts come up in my main reader feed. I have to go directly into their blog. 2. This last month specifically, my friends and I get locked out randomly from seeing each other’s blogs. We’re subscribed to each other, but on reader, we’ll see the blog post come up without a preview, and when we click in to read, it says “subscribe to keep reading. Become a paid subscriber” etc etc. But we’re already subscribed and can see all other posts! When we resubscribe through WordPress on a browser, the post is still hidden on Jetpack. Very frustrating and keeps happening at random to all of us. Please help!

We removed the Free GIF Library as a media source, since the Tenor service it runs on will shut down on June 30. We’re sad about it, too.
If you have a self-hosted site, you’ll now sign in to the app using an application password. If you don’t have one, we’ll automatically create one for you so it’s ready when you need it.
27.0 Jul 2
If you have a self-hosted site, you’ll now sign in to the app using an application password. If you don’t have one, we’ll automatically create one for you so it’s ready when you need it.
We added smart cropping for featured images in the Reader feed. That way, images of people won’t have their heads cut off. Much preferred.
There’s now a confirmation dialog for when you’re marking a referring traffic source as spam. It should be really, really hard to do it by accident.
As part of this update, we also squashed several bugs.
- The timezone label on the Stats screen no longer shows Standard Time during Daylight Savings Time. (Thanks for the catch, @btraviswright!)
- The Articles screen now shows reader comments when they’re posted from the inline section.
- The Subscribe button works properly in Freshly Pressed posts, so you can subscribe to a feed from within a post. Fast, easy, and oh-so-fresh.
- Footnote links in the Reader now work as they’re supposed to and jump to the correct location when you tap them.
- In Reader Comments, the empty state disappears after you post a comment. Cached comments also disappear after they’re deleted, including when you use the swipe action. So long, farewell.
- We fixed assorted design and visibility issues, like button styles, comment separators in Dark Mode, and controls for autoplay videos.
- In the Reader, we fixed a couple of issues with Notification Settings. They’re now hidden when you aren’t subscribed, and they show up properly when you subscribe.
- We fixed an issue where the footer view in Menu Editing wasn’t resizing. As a result, action buttons are now legible in non-English languages. Muy bueno.
- We solved an issue with incorrect avatars in notifications. If you cancel your image download, it won’t appear in the app.
- We removed the non-functional X link on the About screen. (Shout-out to @zynp-KC for reporting!)
26.9 Jun 7
Who’s who on your website? Now you know—Push notifications now use gravatars so you can see who commented or interacted with your content. The Activity Log also shows when your site was updated using AI agents.
If you thought our last updates to the Stats were big, you haven’t seen anything yet.
- Today’s date is now included in intervals like “Last 7 days.” We also added a new “Last 14 days” interval.
- Incomplete dates, including today, are shown on the line chart as a dotted line. You can see them more easily in the bar chart view as well.
- Speaking of bar charts, tapping on a bar will show you the data for that date. This makes it easier to scroll through data for multiple days. Oh, and tapping a bar will no longer select the bar next to it.
- You might notice visual changes like a smaller Chart card header, smaller fonts in tabs, and reduced spacing here and there. It’s giving minimalist.
While we were at it, we made changes to the Reader, too. (Incidentally, none of them are related to reading.)
- When you view an image in a lightbox, swiping downward will dismiss it, even when you’re zoomed in.
- We fixed the color of links in comments and in dark mode on custom themes. Looking good.
- You can view media galleries in fullscreen mode. Just swipe right or left to view all images.
And because we still had a little free time, we also fixed a few details that were bothering us.
- We updated the arrow icons and spacing on the Notifications screen.
- In Post Settings, the Social Sharing card only shows platforms that the app supports.
- New posts use the default post format instead of the standard version. You can update this format in your site settings.
- If your site is self-hosted with XML-RPC disabled, you can see Posts and Pages in the app. That’s pretty important, if we do say so ourselves.
26.8 Apr 8
112% of our team loved the big changes we made to the Stats section. (Some people may have voted twice; we can’t say for sure.)
- There’s a new Ads tab where you can see important WordAds data like the number of ads served and revenue earned.
- We added a UTM tab so you can see source and medium for your site traffic. There’s also a “Devices” view that shows you which devices your visitors used.
- When you select “Today” or another daily period in the Post Stats screen, you’ll see “Last 7 days” instead of hourly data that doesn’t exist. We can’t predict the future just yet.
- We fixed some visual issues with charts and made design improvements throughout the Stats section.
We also made some other general fixes and improvements to the app.
- Post tags are now displayed in the original order you added them to the feed.
- We solved a caching issue on the Insights screen that would display a blank Posting Activity area. Now you can always see what you’ve been up to.
- We fixed a bug in Jetpack notifications that would sometimes display the wrong avatar.
- We made small visual improvements on the Activity Logs screen, like titles, icons, and colors.
We added Custom Post Types as an experimental feature. Test it out and let us know what you think. #science
One last thing: if your site is authenticated with an application password, you don’t need to have XML-RPC enabled. The downside is that only limited features are available. Once enabled, you can get those features back.
26.7 Mar 3
Our AI support feature, WordPress Intelligence, is now available in more locales and languages. Everyone’s favorite helper just got a whole lot handier.
We improved the Stats section by roughly 83%.
- The Locations card lets you filter data by country, region, and city. This data is consistent with Jetpack’s web version.
- “External Links” is now “Clicks,” making it consistent with the web version. We fixed a bug where this area sometimes displayed incorrectly.
- You can turn off automatic data comparison and save that setting for future app usage. We fixed an issue where weekly data for the comparison period didn’t always display correctly.
- Long-pressing on a bar chart will show you more details. Vertical scrolling is also fixed.
- You can view bar graph and line chart data grouped by days, weeks, months, and years.
- Top List items are sorted by name and ordered properly.
We made lots of changes to the Reader, too.
- There’s a new “Freshly Pressed” tab on the Discover screen. We also changed the “Recommended” tab to “For You.”
- There’s only one Search option in the main sidebar.
- The “Read More” view works the same, no matter where you tap it, and you can now see the whole excerpt. So much more to explore.
- The Comments section lets you reply and like comments directly below the article. There’s a new “Leave Comment” button under articles for faster commenting.
- You can see two comments by default instead of just one, and very long comments can be collapsed for easier reading.
- We made a few visual issues with the Comments section, too. Comments now have the correct height, the “View All Comments” button stands out more, and the “Send” button is styled properly.
- You can read posts in your preferred language with in-app translation support.
- Multiple spaces in site titles are collapsed into one for easier reading and display.
We made a technical update that reduces the size of your app by about 6 MB. What will you do with all that newfound space?
It’s easier to find, see, and change the visibility settings of existing posts. The “Done” button also won’t disappear when you set the password while publishing a password-protected post.
Looking good: we updated shortcut icons and illustrations to better match the rest of the app, as well as fit better with your device.
We fixed an issue so post previews now work properly for certain sites using Business and Commerce plans.
When you add a new self-hosted site, you’ll be asked for your app password to authenticate. Keep it secret. Keep it safe.

Heads up, content creators—we’ve been hard at work making some big changes to the Post Settings screen.
- We added a “Status” field that helps you quickly move posts between draft, pending, private, scheduled, and published states.
- We brought back the “Publish Date” area for draft and pending posts. That way you can pick a publish date ahead of time without officially scheduling the post.
- The password field uses a different font (Menlo, if you’re interested) so it’s easier to read similar-looking characters.
- Give your followers the VIP treatment by setting post access levels for all subscribers, paid subscribers, and the general public.
- Toggle post comments and pingbacks on or off using the “Discussion” settings.
While we were at it, we made several other helpful updates in various areas of the app.
- On the “Publishing” screen, you can toggle “Email to Subscribers” to automatically notify your subscribers when a post is published. Start the presses.
- The slug editor has a permalink preview to show what a post’s final URL will look like.
- We added “Taxonomies” to Site Settings so you can manage content groups at the site level.
- Thanks to some design fixes in the “Categories” picker, it’s more obvious that you can pick multiple categories for a post.
- File sizes are now visible in the Site Media Details area. No more guesswork.
More of a reader than a publisher? Don’t worry, we made changes in the Reader, too.
- When related post titles are overly long, you’ll see a shorter, truncated version instead.
- Post tiles can now have three lines of text instead of just two, giving you 50% more content goodness.
- Articles have slightly wider horizontal margins.
- We squashed several bugs that affected the way articles load.

You can now create an excerpt, a post summary, and auto-generated tags for your posts using Apple Intelligence. It’s also easier to pick your tags in Post Settings. Now that’s smart.
Speaking of Stats, there are several new improvements in this area of the app.
- We added a Today card to the New Stats screen.
- Your homepage now appears in the list of top pages.
- Your top 10 and 50 items now have their own special section. A place for everything, and everything in its place.
- Your top pages show up properly when you have a large number of items.
- The New Stats layout changes to fit different screen sizes. Even really, really big ones.
- The screen will remember your preferred settings when you pick a custom date range.
- The Traffic tab lets you pull down to refresh the screen.
We also made a few visual fixes for iOS in areas like the site creation flow, the media selection screen, and the Stats screen. And while we were at it, we squashed several bugs, too.
- We fixed a rare crash that sometimes appears in Stats and Subscribers. (But not anymore.)
- Article views look as they should in the Reader when certain themes are enabled.
- Reader articles render properly on devices with Display Zoom enabled.
- The “Add Media” button stays visible in the media library. No more disappearing act.
- You can search in Reader Subscriptions without freezing the app.
- The toolbar in Reader articles no longer disappears and reappears from time to time. Now you see it, now you… still see it, we guess.

The Reader got some love with visual updates to the article screen, making it easier on the eyes when you're catching up on your favorite content.

- We've added mentions to the experimental editor—tag your collaborators and watch the magic happen.
- iPad Split View now behaves beautifully in portrait mode. No more awkward layouts.
26.2 09/08/2025
We rebuilt Stats from the ground up, and it's absolutely stunning. This new experience features buttery-smooth 120fps animations, interactive charts you can tap and explore, hourly data views, and a completely customizable dashboard. You can rearrange everything, export your data, and even see your post analytics with email campaign metrics. It feels incredible to use—we keep opening it just to watch those beautiful animations. (Look for "Try New Stats" when you open Stats, or enable it anytime in Me > App Settings > Experimental Features.)
We also made improvements to how you manage your content. You'll find a completely redesigned Post Settings screen that makes configuring your posts smoother and more intuitive, plus better VideoPress integration and improved authentication for private sites in our experimental editor.
Finally, we squashed several bugs and made things more reliable.
- The app won't hang anymore when you open your Posts or Pages. (We know how frustrating that was.)
- We fixed a crash that happened when saving certain editor settings.
- Those annoying error popups on your dashboard? Gone.
- Application passwords now work more smoothly behind the scenes, and the Jetpack connection flow is more reliable.

26.1 08/18/2025
We added a new Subscribers screen that shows all of your email and Reader subscribers. Now you know who’s reading (and loving) your content.
We made improvements to the TimeZone Picker so you’ll see more accurate suggestions for your local timezone.
We added a search feature to the Jetpack activity list, complete with dates and users for each activity. In this same area, you can also see when your downloadable backup expires. Knowledge is power.
We gave a small facelift to the Post List, like streamlining labels, making images smaller and removing extra space, and moving loading indicators so they’re more visible.
Finally, we squashed a number of bugs.
- You’ll no longer see HTML encoded characters on various screens, so all your ampersands look exactly as they should. Rock on.
- The “Restore” and “Download Backup” flows don’t cover the navigation bar anymore.
- Domains are now correctly sorted on the Domain Search screen. Finding what you’re looking for is easier than ever.
- We fixed a tag where “WordPress” was incorrectly capitalized in the Reader. (That one was keeping us awake at night.)
26.0 07/17/2025
We made some small visual changes on the Comment Details screen. You’ll now see this screen when you view a comment from your Notifications.
We added a banner to the Me tab, which asks new users to verify their email. Once you do, you’ll have full access to everything in the app. The possibilities are endless.
You’ll find that the currently selected site is always visible in the sidebar, no matter what. Hide-and-seek is over.
We also squashed several bugs.
- YouTube video embeds now show up properly in comments.
- You can now see a preview of unedited draft pages created from templates.
- You won’t see deleted sites in your app anymore. So long, farewell.
- The app syncs blogs properly after they’ve launched.
- The Stats screen shows accurate numbers for visitors and views.
- If you’re using an iPad, the app won’t crash after you delete the last site attached to your account. (It’ll still look pretty empty, though. Maybe consider making a new site?)

We made some small visual changes on the Comment Details screen. You’ll now see this screen when you view a comment from your Notifications.
We added a banner to the Me tab, which asks new users to verify their email. Once you do, you’ll have full access to everything in the app. The possibilities are endless.
You’ll find that the currently selected site is always visible in the sidebar, no matter what. Hide-and-seek is over.
We also squashed several bugs.
- YouTube video embeds now show up properly in comments.
- You can now see a preview of unedited draft pages created from templates.
- You won’t see deleted sites in your app anymore. So long, farewell.
- The app syncs blogs properly after they’ve launched.
- The Stats screen shows accurate numbers for visitors and views.

We removed the Free GIF Library as a media source, since the Tenor service it runs on will shut down on June 30. We’re sad about it, too.
If you have a self-hosted site, you’ll now sign in to the app using an application password. If you don’t have one, we’ll automatically create one for you so it’s ready when you need it.
