Our iPhone app has been in the works for awhile, but as we all know the Apple approval process can sometimes be a bit opaque. We’re anxiously awaiting approval, alongside our first wave of Pogoplug owners and interested Twitterers. In the meantime, check out this tweet from one of our early beta testers:
While we think this is a big step, we realize that the iPhone doesn’t represent all cell phone users and we’re making steps to develop apps for other mobile devices as well. This week, we’ll start testing our Android app with our pool of beta testers and work on getting that our as soon as possible. If you have an Android phone and would like to bang on it as well, leave us a comment or shoot us an email and we’ll try to get you in.
Our mobile apps won’t stop here- we’ve heard from you on our blog, twitter and community forum and we’re listening. But, for those of you with wild imaginations and the gumption to build new add ons, have at it. You can access our API at http://pogoplug.com/dev/ to build your own programs whenever you want!
Anything for Blackberries in the works?
As a Nokia enthusiast and a soon to be Pogoplug user (should be delivered by Friday), I am planning to develop a Widget to run on the S-60 O/S. I am hoping to allow the application to send photos taken on my Nokia N-95 directly to my Pogoplug from within the camera utility. I also plan to create a general browse and upload/download Widget. I have accessed your API and have everything I need from Nokia. I would appreciate any code you wanted to share on what was done on the i-phone. If I am able to get the application running as I hope, I will be happy to share it with others. Nokia is nowhere near as rigid on approving applications to run on their devices as Apple is, and there are many more phones running Symbian operating systems than thre are Android phones.
Will it be possible to download files from the internet using the iPhone, directly to the Pogoplug connect drive?
Also, If I operate in an environment that does not allow storing files to the local drives, can I transfer/download to the Pogoplug. Bare in mind that I am unable to install anything on the workstation that may create a local drive for the Pogoplug.

Looks like the iPhone app just popped up in the iTunes app store this morning. I’m still trying to get it to accept my email and password, though — it keeps rejecting them, and I’ve triple-checked the password entry.
iPhone app is now available!!!
Haha, I downloaded the app on my iPhone but haven’t even bought a PogoPlug yet, but plan to as soon as I get home!

I am having the identical problem. Is anyone anyone else experiencing this? I triple checked my password entry as well.
I have a Verizon Droid (Motorola) and would love an ap.
Seems like a natural fit.
Can I have one please?
Thanks and good luck with the pogoplug.
Im spreading the word.
