Tumble -  ★★★✩✩ (iTMS)

Tumblrette - ★★★★✩ (iTMS)

We’ve been waiting for a little over two months now for an app to drop in the App Store that gives us access to our tumblelogs outside of Safari. I’ve had a chance to play with two apps, Tumble and Tumblrette and I can safely say that they’re both solid apps.

Tumble is a simple, free app that simply allows you to post on your tumblelog. No more, no less. You can choose from Text, Photo, Quote, Link and Chat type posts. The interface is clean and simple and again, just lets you post to your site.

Tumblrette is the Rolls Royce of the Tumblr apps. It costs $1.99 and allows for the same functionality as Tumble but with the included feature to see your dashboard as well. From there you get the same thing that you get when posting from your computer at home: followers, other tumblelogs that you write for, Explore, Preferences, etc.

Both apps are easy to set up and will have you blogging in no time. They’re are simple, streamlined and easy to use

$2 is a tiny price to pay for the added functionality that Tumblrlette brings to your iPhone. If you’ve ever posted or checked Tumblr from your phone and have a measly $2 to throw towards a great app, do it. ~~Zack Shapiro
