Tumblrfor iOS

The same features as the classic social media website, Tumblr is now available from the comfort of your iOS device.

Stay in the loop

Reblog anything you could imagine with the iOS version of Tumblr.

Get the latest notifications and updates from Tumblr with the iOS app. It has all of the same features that you know and love on the web version, but with a couple of extra tools.

Now you can create posts whenever inspiration strikes. The layout is simple, and the app has a friendly interface. Click on the “create post” button, and you’re faced with various options to add text, images, or videos to your post. Some Tumblr fans have had trouble uploading GIFs from the iOS app, but the option is available. It works most of the time.

Tumblr has redesigned its alerts so that they’re similar to other OS notifications. Let the latest reblogs and photo comments appear in a more decluttered, visually-appealing way.

Never miss out on the hottest posts with Radar. It’s a nifty little tool that’s exclusive to the iOS app. You'll find out what’s trending on Tumblr and discover some new accounts to follow. It’s a great way to get connected to communities you would like if you’re new to Tumblr.

Listen to your favorite tracks and share them on your dashboard. The Spotify app is now integrated with Tumblr on iOS. You can send audio to your followers via Spotify and include songs in your posts. You can also see what your friends are listening to.

Where can you run this program?

You can run this program on iOS 6 and later.

Is there a better alternative?

No. Tumblr is unique as a social media site, and this app is well-designed. If you want a social media app with a similar layout, try Twitter for iPhone.
