Joooid is an Android client for the Joomla CMS: it has been created to publish articles with images, galleries and a map indicating the GPS position where the article has been published from (sample article here).
Among the Joooid's features there are an article manager that allows to browse, publish or trash articles and an utility that uploads files from the Android device directly into the Joomla directory (make a tour).
To start using Joooid you need to download and install it from the Android Market then install the Joooid plugin (see instructions here), it is also possible to install some extra plugins to embed Google maps in your article and optionally a shadowbox plugin for the image gallery, I'am currently developing a solution to embed YouTube videos too.
If you find problems in using Joooid, please first check the setup and troubleshooting section. If it does not help to solve the problem, you can add a post in the bug reporting section or write me an e-mail here with a description of the problem and the published post url (if necessary).
If you like the plugin, you could write a review on the Joomla extension drectory and consider to make a donation to help me improve the application.

New features:

Added the frontpage publishing in articles:
