Dear Friends,

as you know, LJ has a cool mobile app! You've probably downloaded it already, but if you haven't - definitely do so!



14 Interesting Things about LiveJournal Mobile App

Now we're going to tell you more about the app! So, 14 facts about the new LiveJournal app that you should know.


1. About Post Editor

The post editor in LiveJournal mobile app is very similar to the creation of "stories" from other social networks. The difference is that a post can consist of any number of screens. One screen is a single object: a headline, text, picture, or video.

2. In the browser, the post from the mobile app will look the usual way

A post written in the mobile app will look as an ordinary post created in the new editor in the browser on the destkop version of LiveJournal. This is the main difference from "stories," which always look like vertical pictures.

3. The Mobile App Editor & the New Post Editor are fully compatible

The post editor in the mobile app is backward-compatible. This means that posts created in the new editor in the browser and in the mobile app will be displayed in a new way - on multiple screens-pages. These posts can be edited in the mobile app, too, if necessary.

4. The Fisrt Screen of the Entry is the Title Screen

When you create a post, the first screen always has a headline - we call it a post cover, because now you can further decorate the headline as you wish - add a picture to the background or change the background color. This information won't show up in the browser, but in the mobile app, your readers will see your post as you want it to look.

When you create a post, you can add 10 photos to the post. And yeah, you can upload images from your phone or tablet, or you can choose the ones you've already uploaded to your albums in LiveJournal.

6. Description of the Photos in the Mobile App Editor

You can add a description to the photo and control the location of the description on the picture screen. In the browser, you will see this text in the standard description below the image.

11. Read Posts in a Comfortable Order

If you prefer to read the posts in chronological order or in order of popularity of the posts, just flip through the feed or rank the posts from top to bottom.

12. You Can Store Drafts and Supplement Them From Any Device

The app knows how to save drafts. What's more, drafts are now cross-platform, meaning you can start writing a post in the mobile editor and finish it later in your browser.

You can start creating a post offline. The draft will be saved in the app's memory and can be published when the network appears.
