Manage Plugins in the WordPress Mobile Apps
Plugins add powerful features to your site. Now you can access them right from your mobile device.
We’re happy to announce the addition of a frequently requested feature in the WordPress mobile apps: plugin management! With the 9.1 update for the iOS and Android apps, WordPress.com Business plan sites with plugins and self-hosted WordPress sites with Jetpack can now manage their plugins right in the app.
Instead of going to your dashboard in a web browser for every little plugin change, you can now browse your site’s plugins in the WordPress mobile apps, and activate, deactivate, and update plugins right from your phone. You can also manage auto-updates, remove most plugins, and find a link to the plugin’s page on WordPress.org for quick reference.
Try It Out
To find plugins in your app, make sure you’ve updated to version 9.1+ and have the Jetpack plugin (version 5.6+ required). Once you’re updated, you’ll see a new “Plugins” area under “Configure”.

What I actually don’t like about WordPress is that you can’t enable any plugins in the basic free version. This is disappointing. It should have some basic/selected/limited plugins for the free version user. It helps grow their site in an effective way.
