Thanks for the candid feedback. I agree it is not that great. I have used it a fair amount myself on my tablet where the full screen experience works better. The browser experience for me is a little painful on the tablet and I find the app gives me a better experience. The offline mode I find most useful, especially when flying, since I can save a bunch of articles quickly and read them at my leisure on the flight. Sure, I could probaby achieve the same through another mechanism but on a windows 8 tablet I find things not built for touch a little difficult to work with. Have to agree that the UI is not the nicest by far - I struggled with the winjs stylesheets but maybe I will find time to improve it. Honestly, I built it mainly for myself to try out winjs. I find it useful and thought I might as well put it out there.
