Comment on HTML-based weather app

For the love of God, if this is HTML then why is it only working on iOS devices? Is the iPhone/iPad the new Internet Explorer?

If this is HTML, then why not take the source and make a cross-browser version? I guess I don't see the harm in just making an HTML iPhone app.

Personally, for instance, I wouldn't be happy if I shipped something as "cross-browser" that looked just awful in most browsers no matter what I tried.

Given that there's no apparent license agreement, this would presumably be copyright infringement.

True. Well, it just seems ungrateful. It's an iPhone app, built with HTML5. They've built something really nice, for free, and yet people feel entitled to more.
