The WordPress mobile apps are the best way to manage your site from anywhere. If you're already using the app, you might have noticed a new visual design that's been rolling out. That rollout is complete in WordPress 17.1, which is available today for both Android and iOS. If you're not already using it this is the perfect time to give it a try!
Our new visual design as seen on iPhone and iPad.
We add new features and improve the WordPress apps in every release, but our visual design hasn't changed much in the last few years. Over the last few months we've thought about how to modernize the design of the apps. As we've implemented features like Dark Mode, we're taking advantage of new components made available in the latest versions of iOS and Android.
Bigger, bolder headers call out key product areas and create a distinction between the top level tabs and deeper levels of the apps. A new color palette pairs a more neutral background that lets your content shine with brighter blues that make interactive elements even more noticeable. A new serif typeface is a nod to WordPress's roots in writing and publishing.
Dark Mode is available on both iOS and Android devices.
We hope you enjoy these updates as you use the apps and we'd love to hear your feedback. Reach out to us from within the app by going to My Site, tapping your photo on the top right, tapping Help & Support, and then selecting Contact Support.

Here's a peek at the latest changes in the block editor — subtle-yet-practical enhancements that help you create beautiful posts and pages more efficiently:
New page layout picker experience.
Convert text and images into Columns block.
Improved spacing options for social links and buttons.
Streamlined behavior of the writing prompt.
Let's dive in!
New Page Layout Picker
Page layouts are pre-designed templates that make creating beautiful pages a breeze. In this update we focused on improving the layout picker, making it easier to quickly browse different categories and select your layout.
Convert text and images into Columns Block
Transforming one block into another is a nifty trick that can greatly improve the editing experience. With the latest update, text (and images too!) can be automatically converted to a Columns block with the click of a button.
Select two or more blocks (these could be Paragraph, Heading, Image, etc.), click on the grouped block icon, and select "Columns" from the list of transformation options. The number of blocks selected will correspond to the number of columns.
Improved spacing options for Social Links and Buttons
Get creative with new ways to arrange your social links and buttons. This update brings you greater control over spacing and unlocks some neat layout ideas.
The correct alignment will be visible once you finish editing the Social Icons block.
Streamlined behavior of the writing prompt
You're probably familiar with the writing prompt that greets you every time you start a new post or page. Until now you'd also see it on every new line in your document. We're happy to report that's no longer the case! To streamline the writing process the prompt will now only appear once. There will be no subsequent prompts with every new line — just space for you to write your thoughts without distractions.
You keep building, we'll keep improving
We can't wait to see what you build with the improved block editor. In the meantime, we'll keep new updates coming your way.
Join our panel discussion with social media experts from Talkwalker, ReviewTrackers, and Hootsuite to discover emerging trends in social media, social listening, and reputation management—and learn how you can put these key opportunities into practice for 2021.
