Tumblr’s New Mobile Apps Cut The PC Cord

One of the features that has attracted users to Tumblr is the vast customization options it offers. Users can truly add their personal touch to their blogs, which is why most of them like Tumblr in the first place. As its mobile usage increases, it adapts accordingly. New updates have been released today for Tumblr’s iOS and Android applications and they bring all customization options to mobile. Users no longer need to use a PC for any of that like they had to before.

Using the new mobile apps it is now possible to choose between headers, fonts, colors, themes and styles. Tumblr writes that there are 3.3 billion combinations that users can make with all of the customization options it offers, and all that can now be done on mobile. Those who still want to use PCs to make tweaks can continue to do so, changes will automatically be synced between both platforms.

Tumblr’s creative director Peter Vidani revealed that they have been working on this update for nearly one year, and that this is the biggest launch they have done in the past five years. Tumblr plays host to more than 180 million blogs, so millions of its users will certainly be rushing to update their iOS and Android apps now that its so much easier to personalize their blogs on the fly.
