I do all my blogs on my iPad. WordPress has a really user friendly App that makes adding pictures and posting really easy. In fact I’ve written my entire book on my WordPress App. I write every single day here.
Today I started my blog and added a picture. It said “failed” so I tried and retried but it wouldn’t load. I refreshed my iPad. No change. I tried cropping it. No change. I tried to find a similar but smaller image thinking the size might be the problem. I couldn’t find one. Finally, I decided to give up temporarily.
Do you use WordPress App? Has this happened to you?
I use WordPress also. I have been hesitant to publish my whole book on here because I was afraid it would be stolen. Any opinions?

I had issues two days ago. Cathy, I uploaded photos but for some reason, they would’t “stick” to my post. It was awful and I was becoming aggitated because I have the premium program. I found out later that WP did some updating but failed to let anyone know. Anyway, I do have the app but never use it. I’m more comfortable using my desktop.
I’m wondering if your issue had more to do with WP’s upgrading.

Thanks. I hope that’s the reason. It IS frustrating and a waste of time to keep trying.

I’ve never had this experience before. I heard WP was working on something.

I’m sure it’s a one off. I really like the app.

I have had a on & off love/hate relationship with creating a post on my iPad. A very temperamental app with many ‘moods’ of the day!😝

I use the WordPress app on my IPad only for small tasks. I am surprised that you have had so much success with yours unless you have been doing mostly straight writing and little formatting– I find formatting on the iPad a headache and after a few months blogging I promised myself I would always write posts on a computer to avoid inevitable technical difficulties. I do use the iPad though and sometimes the ‘newer easier’ interface just goes crazy and I have to switch out by going into Administration where the old interface is. Good luck!

Hmmm. I don’t even know who you are talking about so I guess I just do write and post pictures. I don’t format or do anything techie.

I don’t regard myself as techie either. For me when using the iPad app, doing simple edits can be painful so I do this on a laptop.

I find it easy to edit but I just usually have to just change a word or something simple.

Same issue here! And for some reason I never see all images that should be in my media database anymore. I find I revert to the old dashboard more and more!
