MailChimp Campaign Stats on iPhone
The guys in the MailChimp Lab have just launched a mini-MailChimp for the iPhone.
MailChimp customers: just go to MailChimp.com on your iPhone and sign in (or go straight to admin.mailchimp.com), then we’ll redirect you to the iPhone version.
It’s not a fully functional MailChimp account where you can create a full blown HTML Email campaign. Think of it as “MailChimp Lite.” It’s a way for you to log in to your account, quickly check the stats (Mmmmm, pie charts) for your recent campaigns, read your “Chimp Chatter” to find out what’s going on with your email marketing, and it’s a handy way to subscribe people you meet (such as at trade shows and events) to your email lists.
When you’re logged in, you’ll see this:
Home page when you log in to MailChimp for iPhone
- Click on “dashboard” to go to your Chimp Chatter. MailChimp will give you a bird’s eye view of everything that’s going on with your email marketing.
- Click on “reports” for a list of recent campaigns. Then, click a campaign to see its stats.
- Click on “subscribe” to see all your managed MailChimp lists. Then, pick a list, and you can add a subscriber to the list.
Check your recent campaign stats

This is great! Hats off to you guys.
Where is the Windows Mobile love?
Wahoo! This is great stuff!
How about the ability to view the campaign? No edits of course.
@Tim – Try the Yahoo widget on Windows Mobile:

We’re considering a straight MailChimp mobile site as well. This is stuff we’re tinkering with in “the lab,” so remember that it’s an elaborate excuse to play with Yahoo Blueprint, and the iPhone. But hey, that’s how cool stuff happens sometimes.
You guys are insane! Love love MailChimp!
Thank you!
This is great. Looking forward to see more functionalities available on the iPhone app.

I’m loving this! Just (finally) got a new iPhone this week, so what a great surprise to see y’all have already thought of this! This is just one of the many reasons I love MailChimp.
Cool stuff. Anything for blackberry in the pipeline? Most of my sales guys have blackberry’s. i like the idea of signing up subscribers at tradeshows.
It would be pretty cool if if you could use the mobile version to send a ready-to-go campaign to a list – no editing, just scheduling or sending, for when you’re waiting for the final go-ahead on a campaign.
Yeah, we’ve needed that ourselves! We’ll circle back around and update our mobile apps soon. Thanks!
Any chance of a Blackberry version?
I love this… it’s so addictive!
Any idea on when the next update is coming? I can’t seem to get a lot of the features to work anymore?
This is fantastic. I just discovered MailChimp yesterday and already have a list and campaign sent out. Any chance you’re working on a more featured dedicated iPhone app?
yes, actually we are! glad you discovered MailChimp – welcome!

Hi Guys…we love your service and your style…freaking hilarious AND useful!! So…where do I find the iphone app? It’s not on itunes or search able from my iphone?
Thanks! The guys at http://www.diggerslist.com send monkey love right back atcha!
Hi there,
Thanks for making some forward movement on the iPhone platform!
It’s nice to have a “mobile” version of the MailChimp website for the iPhone, but there are some problems with it right now. What makes this worse is that the “full” version of the MailChimp website has broken features on the iPhone as well.
For example:
1. Using the MOBILE version of the website, I subscribed somebody to my list by typing in their (rather lengthy) email address into the “email address” field. But once I moved onto the next field, I realized that I might have made a typo their email address. So I went back to the email address field, but it put the cursor at the BEGINNING of the email field… but the iPhone wouldn’t let me scroll to the end of the email address with my finger to see the end of the email address. This is normally possible with normal fields, but for some reason the iPhone isn’t recognizing the fields on the “mobile version” of your subscribe form as normal fields. So if an email address is too long to visually see in the field, you’ll probably just have to “select all”, delete it, and then type it again.
2. The MOBILE version of the site doesn’t let you search your subscriber list to see if somebody already exists on your list. This is critical for me. Even worse, if you go to the FULL version of the site on the iPhone, and you try to search your list using the “search” box that appears above your list, it doesn’t work… it always yields 0 people as a result of your search. Luckily, I figured out that the “segment list” search actually DOES work on the iPhone, but that takes longer than using the “search” field.
Thanks!
Scott
Thanks! Great feedback that we’ll send to the iPhone dev team. Really appreciate your taking the time to tell us all this.
Hi Ben,
How do I include ‘name’ as one of the fields when I subscribe someone with this app? Currently, I can only enter ‘email’ as the only field.
Some days, my iPhone is the only internet I have, so have tried both the ‘standard’ and the ‘iPhone’ version of MailChimp – they are great, but would love to be able to create/edit a campaign on my phone – more than happy to just work in source code, as the WYSIWYG editor does not work correctly on the iPhone – is there any way to do this?
Code HTML email via iPhone? That just sounds masochistic. Not sure we’d feel right about enabling that.
Would you find the email beamer useful? Where you email a photo or a regular old email message via iPhone to MailChimp, and then we automatically construct an email inside your template? All you’d need to do then is log in and hit send.
Note that although the website lets you use non-alphanumerics in your password, the stupid iPhone app won’t and says your username/password could not be found.
Hi, Chris. We are aware of the issue and working on an update to the app that will resolve it.
I love the concept…I just wish you would do one for the Droid too. There are a lot of us who have smart phones that would like to have this app on the Android market.
stay tuned.
drrrrroooooooid.
*love* saying that!
Just tried to use iPhone mailchimp app but I get an error message that says:
Invalid Mailchimp API Key:… You are accessing the wrong datacenter – your client library may not properly support our datacenter mapping scheme.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks… Chris
Experiencing the same issues as you Chris.
For the fun of it – i tried re-installing the APP without any luck.
This is on a 3GS iOS 4.1 trying to connect to a trial account.
For the sake of completeness, I have a iPhone 3G, also running iOS 4.1, trying to connect to a live account. Monkey help required!
I am having the same issues Bernt and Chris on an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.1.
The error says “Bummer – Invalid Mailchimp API Key: ############. You are accessing the wrong datacenter – your client library may not properly support our datacenter mapping scheme.
Bernt, Aubrey, can I ask where you guys are in the world? I’m in Cheshire, UK. Thanks… Chris
<< Oslo, Norway
Same probleme here:
Iphone 3Gs OSI 4.1 (paris France)
Call the monkey !
Bernt, Aubrey, Tristan,
I have been chasing monkey tech support. Good news, please see the feedback below.
Cheers… Chris
