  Hi there,

  You can indeed, though it does vary slightly depending on if you’re on an Android or iOS device. I personally have an Android phone so I’m going to tell you that way, and if you are in an iPhone the steps are pretty similar.

  When you are looking at your site in the Android app, you can open the menu by clicking the three parallel lines at the top of the screen on your left. You can either upload images through the Media menu, where you’ll then click the Plus sign (+) at the top of the screen; or you can do so through the Compose window by clicking on Posts and then the Plus sign again.

  On the Posts screen, when you have the keyboard exposed (so when you are typing in the post), you’ll have a series of icons available just above your keyboard. All the way on the right is an icon which looks like a silhouette of a mountain with a moon over it. That is to add media. Go ahead and click that and you’ll be prompted to insert media however you’d like.

  You’re all set! Now if you do have an iOS device and you find this walkthrough didn’t help at all, I’ll find the information you need!
