 * Jack,
    Thanks so much for looking into this so thoroughly. I kind of expected
   we’d be running into limitations with XML-RPC, so I understand your response 
   and am happy with it. Here’s hoping the WordPress app changes this in the future.
   We’ll try to keep an eye on that and check in with you if we hear of a change.

 * Jack,
    Thanks for checking into this! FYI: It looks like the Android version 
   of the app also skips this hook, based on our testing.

 * Jack,
    It looks like the app stores drafts offline within itself unless you deliberately
   save as a draft. Which makes sense, because while using an app you would want
   to have the option to be able to work offline and publish later. So my guess 
   is that it is skipping the hooks by never having that “draft” status– it’s going
   directly to a “publish” status.
 * Any way around that to get notifications to work? If all else fails, our folks
   can try to remember to specifically save a draft, but obviously that’s clunky.
 * I believe the app is using XML-RPC, but I’m not finding a ton of detail on their
   site about how it works. [https://apps.wordpress.org/support/](https://apps.wordpress.org/support/)

 * Jack,
    Thanks for the quick response! – We are using version 1.3 of BNFW (so 
   it looks like we could upgrade to 1.3.2, and I’ll try to get that done). – We
   are using the latest stable release of WordPress core (4.2.2) – We are using 
   the latest version of the mobile app (note: we’ve been testing in exclusively
   iOS thus far. We have access to Android devices if it’s worth exploring that,
   though as a mostly iOS shop we’re pretty interested in iOS working).
 * What kind of details are you looking for about how the app posts to our site?
 * Thanks,
    Juliana
