Blogging has come a long way and so has how we blog.No longer are we required to be stuck at a desktop or carrying a laptop to write and publish blog posts.Many blogs are solely wrote on the go from from mobile devices and with the right apps you too can simply work on your latest post or fully blog on the go.

In this post I focus on apps for Android phones or tablets.So if your an Android user your guaranteed to find something to make your blogging life a lot easier ! All apps are free although some may have a pro version.

20+ Best Android Apps For Blogging


We will start with the official apps for the three main Blog Platforms.Each should need no introduction they give you full access to your blog to write, save and publish posts, moderate comments and more.Follow the links to download from the Play Store :


I presume you will already have the apps downloaded for your favorite Social Networks and they don't need any explanation.If you have not yet downloaded them here are links to the Android apps for :




I will however link to a separate official Facebook app that helps you look after your Facebook pages from your phone.

Facebook Pages Manager - As we mentioned in a previous post it's important you create a Facebook page for your blog not promote your blog via your personal profile.The Facebook pages manager makes running your Like page from your Android devices simple.

"Pages Manager helps admins connect with their audience and keep up with activity on multiple Pages, all in one place."

Writer Android App - Writer is a great app for those that want to write posts on the go with a simple unobtrusive interface then access the content later.The big appeal is just how simple it is to write and format text I have found it better than the post editor on the WordPress App.


"Writer is a writing application without the fuss and distraction of a traditional word processor. It's perfect for everything from taking notes to writing a novel on your phone or tablet."

SwiftKey Keyboard - One of the first downloads for me is Swiftkey.The Swiftkey app can save you so much time writing blog posts on your mobile device.

"SwiftKey Keyboard is a free, award-winning keyboard app for Android that delivers the best next-word prediction, smarter autocorrect, support for over 800 emoji, emoji prediction and much more! "

Buffer For Android - Social media is a big part of being a blogger these days.You simply must have a presence on Facebook, Twitter and the other social networks and Buffer is one way to make this easier.

"Buffer is the best way to share on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and App.net from one place."

Feedly - We no longer have Google Reader and it seems the feed app people have turned to is Feedly.Stay up to date and organize the latest news from your favorite sites.

"All your favorite websites in one place.Instead of having to hunt down for news, feedly aggregates the contents of your favorite sites and delivers them as a fast mobile-optimized experience."

Evernote - Evernote is an essential app for bloggers letting you create notes, audio, sketches and more on the go.Sync up your computer and devices so you can access your stuff wherever you want.

"Evernote is an easy-to-use, free app that helps you remember everything across all of the devices you use. Stay organized, save your ideas and improve productivity. Evernote lets you take notes, capture photos, create to-do lists, record voice reminders--and makes these notes completely searchable, whether you are at home, at work, or on the go."

Google AdSense - The Google AdSense android app lets you stay up to date with how your ads are performing on the go.



"The Google AdSense app provides an easy way to view key data from your AdSense and AdMob accounts. It allows you to access reporting features anywhere, directly from your mobile device. "

Google Analytics - Another handy app from Google with the Analytics app you can track how your blogs are performing.

"Access all of your Google Analytics web and app reporting profiles from your mobile device. The app has an all-new look and feel that’s optimized for phones and tablets, so you can easily get your Analytics data anytime, anywhere."

Pocket - Have you ever come across a website on your mobile and thought you want to check it out later maybe when your on your desktop or laptop ? Pocket lets you quickly save any type of content for later.


"Over 10 million people use Pocket to easily save articles, videos, and other web content for later. With Pocket, all your items go to one place, so you can view, organize and share them anytime, on any device, even offline."

WebRank SEO - Keep track of your blogs SEO stats such as Page Rank and Alexa Rank directly from your mobile device.

"Now you get everything from Website Ranks (Google Pagerank, Alexa Rank and Compete Rank), Sociometer(facebook like, tweets and google plus count), Pages Indexed and Backlinks in various search engines(Google, Bing & Alexa) as well as WHOIS lookup, DiffStats and Stats comparison (Pro Version Only)."

Pixlr Express - If you need a quick and easy to edit pictures for your blog Pixlr Express is a great option.Choose from a huge selection of image effects when blogging on the go.

"Pixlr Express is a fun and powerful photo editor that lets you quickly crop, rotate, and fine-tune any picture, all in a completely ad-free experience. Choose from over 2 million combinations of free effects, overlays, and borders to further personalize your image. Pixlr Express makes you look like a pro, even if you’ve never edited a photo before."

VidTrim - While Pixlr Express helps edit your pictures on your mobile device VidTrim is a neat option for editing video.

"VidTrim is a video editor and organiser for Android. It includes multiple features like trimming, video effects, extract audio (convert to MP3), frame grabbing and transcoding (convert to MP4). You can also share your videos with your friends directly through the app."

Imgur Android App - Imgur is a popular image sharing and hosting website with a niche following.The Imgur app lets you access all images uploaded bu the community and your own uploads.

"Imgur is the go-to destination for viral images. Backed by a funny and friendly community, Imgur is the best place to spend your free time online and, now with the mobile app, on the go."
