How sweet it is
September 10, 2009
As my previous post obviously states I have recently installed the WPtouch plugin which does the job of creating an iPhone like theme for iPhone/iPod touch/Pre/Storm’s. Anyways I am posting about it again now as after about a week of using it from my iPod touch and from managing it it from the Macbook I must say I am thoroughly impressed with the time and detail taken to make this such an excellent plugin
How it looks:
The following two images are screenshots from my iPod touch and they show how nice the plugin makes WordPress look on the device
As we can all remember from before the App store came into being we had these web apps people kept making and lets face it, most were slow and shit! This plugin makes an elegant web application out of the blog that is a pleasure to use. The admin interface also allows for a vast variety of customization ranging from creating an iPhone style list for your links to a total interchangeable icon system (but I like the original Apple style to be honest…)
Anyways if you expect to be getting traffic from iPhone/iPod users or even some other newer smart phones like the Pre or Android you should consider WPTouch as an addition to your plugin repository as it can definitely offer a great experience. If you’re worried about users not liking it there is an option at the bottom to disable it or you can do a reverse of this and it will display your blog as standard and offer the option at the bottom to switch on the interface. Very nice! 🙂
