WPWindowsPhone app upgrades
Version 2.0 is ready to be submitted to the store. It features stability improvements (especially around Stats) and a new feature for WordPress.com users: Gallery support. The update was submitted right after the dev chat.
WPAndroid UI progress
Making good progress. The menu drawer is in trunk and some updates have been made to the WordPress.com Reader to perform better with the new “action bar”.
Going to need mockups soon, Isaac will tackle those.
WPiOS
Version 3.5 is still in review, had to be resubmitted with an issue resolved. It’s still unclear what the next version of the app should be, but media improvements and visual editor are high on the list and should be worked on in parallel. Media improvements would likely be the first feature release. There has also been talk of a sharing library for third-party developers to include in their apps for easy sharing through the WPiOS app. This is not a user feature however and is not planned at the moment.
Handbook progress
Eric reminded everybody about the handbook schedule and urged those involved to take an extra look at each of the platforms featured.
Next week
The next dev chat will be on Feb 27, 2013 at 16:00 UTC. Mark your calendar and join us in #wordpress-mobile on Freenode.
