11.4:
This release takes care of a pair of pesky bugs:
* If your site had no title set, you’d see an empty field where the title would ordinarily go. Now, you’ll see “WordPress” there. (Also: you should give your site a title! It’s good for SEO.)
* Sometimes the History screens for pages and posts wouldn’t actually show the differences between revisions, making the screen a little pointless. That’s fixed, so the History screen is once again useful.
11.3:
* The Post Revision screen now shows a visual preview of each revision, so you can see exactly what the older versions looked like and find the one you need quicker.
* If you used the mobile (i.e., browser) version of WordPress.com and clicked on a banner suggesting that you view something in the app, but then didn’t actually end up on the right page in the app? Those links are a lot more accurate now.
* Found and squashed some bugs around changing your password and media storage limits.
11.2:
* Jump directly from WordPress.com in your browser to the same content in your WordPress for Android app via the banner at the bottom of WordPress.com pages!
* Post revision history is now available in the app via the History entry in the editor menu.
* The media library now displays the space you’ve used.
* Bug fixes.

* We cleaned out some code cobwebs to make everything faster and more reliable.

* Plus some bug fixes and general reliability improvements, as always.
10.9:
* It sure would be nice if the listing of Site Pages in your dashboard reflected the actual layout and ordering of pages on your site. Oh, wait! Now it does.
* The Stats Widget was looking a little dusty. We polished it up with clearer number formatting that reflects the language you write in and some new icons.
* We brought more visual consistency to different screens throughout the app, so getting around is easier
* Broke out the fly swatter and got rid of some bugs.

10.7:
Everyone loves a GIF! Animated GIFs are supported throughout the app, and we sped up their load times so you never have to wait to see that cat fall off the table.
Nobody likes blank screens with no instructions! If you navigate to any page with no content — e.g., you go to the Reader but you don’t follow any blogs — we’ll suggest next steps.
Small UI improvements to make your experience more intuitive. You probably won’t notice them, and that’s the point.
