A few weeks ago I let you know that the WordPress team was planning to release an app refresh of their application for BlackBerry smartphones. Today they’ve launched a public beta of version 1.6 which is available for most devices running OS 4.5 or higher. Danilo from WordPress would like your help in testing the following:

• Are all of your blogs still in the app if you upgraded?
• Try to post a quick photo.
• If you have a WordPress.com blog in the app, try out the new Read function. Change filters, like some posts, view Freshly Pressed, and more.
• Try the new File Picker, is it fast? Responsive? (It now sort files by last-modification date.)
• The Posts/Pages/Comments lists now have infinite loading. Check to make sure it keeps loading your content.
• Is the new Dashboard rendered like it should? See example.

Here are the download links:

• For BlackBerry OS v4.5
• For BlackBerry OS v4.6
• For BlackBerry OS v4.7
• For BlackBerry OS v5.x
• For BlackBerry OS6
• For BlackBerry Torch with OS6
• For BlackBerry OS7
