Hi folks,
as you may or may not know, we ran a coding competition in October which included mobile photo upload as one of the challenges.
You can see the submissions here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/October_2011_Coding_Challenge/Submissions
The submissions include a "Share with Commons" application for Android. It can be installed through the Android market and the source code is available on GitHub.
https://market.android.com/details?id=nl.michiel1972.main https://github.com/michiel1972/shareWithCommons
The application adds a "Share with Wikimedia Commons" option to the "Share with" menu that's available in the Android Gallery app. That is, when you're viewing a picture on your phone, you can easily upload that particular picture to Commons through the same process that's used for Picasa and other websites.
I've tested it, and it works. It doesn't prompt for categories and the license selection is basically just a template field, but it gets the job done. Images uploaded using the app are added to this category:

We'll reach out to the author to see if they're interested in continuing to develop it and host it in Wikimedia's SVN.
There are some other submissions as well:
- An effort to build uploading functionality into the official
Wikipedia Android app by User:Tpt
- Three iOS / Objective C implementations of varying degrees of
completeness. I haven't tested those yet, but we'll review them as well and share notes.
The full list of submissions can be found here -- please add your own comments on the talk page:
