I was wondering if anyone knows of a iPhone app that makes uploading images to the commons easy. I ran across mention of WikiSnaps but couldn't really figure out what it's current state was. Is this a need that other's have had, and found tools for?

I think maybe someone was working on this for WLM? Don't remember for sure.
