How to easily post to Blogger (using smartphone)

To start with, posting to blogger was never an easy task. You always had to have a computer with you to get your ideas or thoughts to the world.
Well the things are changed now. Smartphones and tablets have made things easy. If some new idea for a blog post strikes you in the midst of walking on street, and you are afraid that by the time you reach your computer you will forget some important points or your idea may get diluted. All you have to do is take out your smartphone open the blogger app and start typing. This helps in keeping your ideas and thoughts original so that you get every aspect of your idea noted down in it's original form.
The blogger app can be downloaded for free on android, IOS and Windows Phone. After downloading you need to sign in to blogger using your google account and you are good to go. Blogger app requires that you already have created your blog. Blogger app just provides you the basic functionality needed for creating a blog post such as text editor with bold, italic and option to add hyperlinks. You can also add images to your post from your device, attach your device location to your post and add labels. After your post is published you can view your blog to check the way your post is displayed on mobile devices. If you need any changes to be made to your post you can do so and re-publish your post.
If you run multiple blogger blogs you can also quickly and easily swap between them. It should also be noted that blogger app for smartphones just provides basic functionality. You should use your pc if you want your post to be feature rich with videos and html edit options. Also blogging tools such as blog stats, templates and blog settings aren't accessible through this app.
So if you want to post anything, anywhere, anytime and are mainly focussed on textual part of post with images and location feature, then blogger app for smartphone is for you.
Also this post you just read was created and published from a smartphone. Keep blogging :).
