  I just wrote a post in my browser (Safari, iOS9), saved it, tried to click on the link to upload media, had to go somewhere, picked up my iPad 5 minutes later to find no media upload page, but only a lank editor for a brand post. And no saved draft. Why? I don’t use your app any more because I’ve lost too many posts. What am I – or you – doing wrong?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The current version of the editor uses localStorage to save the draft, unless you have explicitly clicked the “Save Draft” button. In the next version of the editor, autosaves will happen more often and they will be stored in revisions instead of in localStorage. This will help a lot in scenarios like the one you have described where you are switching between devices a lot to edit. I’m sorry you ran into this problem! There is work being done to update this as we speak.
