  Good Day – I have a number of images already uploaded into my Media on WordPress and would like to create posts to go along with those images on the go, using WordPress for Android. I do not see a way to insert those media files (which only reside on my desktop computer, not on my phone, so uploaded to WP from there).

  Any suggestion would be helpful.

  Using the Android app the choices for image insertion are
  Select a photo from gallery
  Take a new photo
  Select a video from gallery
  Take a new video

  If you select “from gallery” it will take you to your phone’s image gallery, so at present inserting from your uploaded, media library via the app is not possible.

  PS Using dropbox is an excellent option. :)

  Also, have to tried logging in to WordPress.com from your phone rather than use the app? With everything going responsive width, maybe it’d be worth a try?

  Now speaking from personal experience, nix my last response. Sharing from Dropbox via the WP app for Android is much more agreeable.
