We have just released Commons for iOS (version 1.0.8) and Android (1.0beta11), with *major* UI and performance improvements on iOS and minor bug fixes on Android.
This is our first release in a couple months on iOS -- we hoped to have one out before Wikimania but were delayed due to problems with Apple's online developer tools being offline for a while. There are huge UI improvements and lots of bug fixes, thanks to our new mobile developer Monte Hurd. Thanks Monte!
We've been releasing smaller updates on Android in the meantime, so the updates have been more incremental there.
Both versions now include a quick 3-screen acceptable-use tutorial on first login. iOS includes featured photos as examples as well; this will come to Android in a future version.

Hey Brion,
Very cool!
I just downloaded Commons for iOS and uploaded a photo in minutes … it went smooth as silk :)
Thanks for you fine work, which should enable many more folks to contribute multimedia content on the go.
Cheers,
Fabrice

hi brion,
thank you so much for that! where is the source code? i tried to search for "commons" on https://git.wikimedia.org/. i wanted to look if there is really no account creation at the login screen or it is just my phone which does not display one, and which URL the aplication connects to (https i hoped). as well, i was quite puzzled that wikipedia zero might not include traffic coming from apps.
rupert.
