Android has become the most popular and growing platform for smartphones and tablets over the past few years. Google Play service of Android is providing many apps for bloggers. These android apps are making a blogger’s life easier than ever before. Moreover, as the smartphones are taking the place of the computers and laptops, these android apps are becoming more crucial for any blogger. So, if you are a blogger or planning to have a blog then you must have these android apps for your good. I am going to list these android apps down below :
1: WordPress
WordPress is the most popular blogging platform on the internet without a doubt. This app helps you handle your blog made using wordpress.org or wordpress.com. This app helps you to publish posts, upload images, moderate comments, see your site’s analytics etc. This is the first app you should look for as a blogger.
2:Blogger
Blogger is another popular platform for blogging. Blogger app is developed by Google Inc. But it still lacks many functionalities. They are very less compared to the WordPress app. However, one can create posts, publish posts etc. using this app. If you use blogger platform then definitely give this app a try.
3:Tumblr
If you have a tumblr blog which is also called a microblog, then you must have this app. It is for all tumblr users. It provides many good functionalities such as scheduling posts, posting, viewing and replying to messages etc. It can also handle multiple blogs. One can also share videos, images, gifs and much more using this cool app.
4:Writer
Writer is a very helpful app for bloggers. Generally, we get distracted by the notification from other apps while writing. The Writer app provides you a distraction-free environment for writing content. This helps you to get peace of mind and allows you to focus only on the content you are writing. Isn’t is great?
5:Google Drive
Google Drive is powered by Google INC. It allows you to store upto 15 GB of content on cloud. It can store a word document, an excel sheet, pdf documents, videos, audios and many other types of files. It also provides back-up of data. So, you can write half of your article on smartphone and half on laptop if you want to as it will be synced everywhere. This is something very good provided by Google and is very helpful for a blogger especially.
6:Google Analytics
Google analytics will be a crucial app for you as a blogger as it allows you to see the traffic of your blog and provides analytics.

It allows you to check page views, clicks, pages RPM etc. It also allows you to monitor the performance of channels. Earning report is also available from this app. I recommend you this app if you are earning using the Google Adsense.
9:Dictionary.com

Then, it predicts the word, the next word and also the emoji according to your writing pattern. It supports over 100 languages.

You just have to swipe over characters to write and that helps increase the writing speed. That is something very essential for bloggers.
