  I recently enabled two-step authentication for my account. When I try to access my blog on my iPhone, it tells me I need to configure an application-specific password; how do I do that? Do I do it on my phone?

  If you have two-step setup, you need an application specific password to use the mobile app. You can set one of those up by logging into your WordPress.com site on a computer and going to:
