What is so bad about the iOS app? It hasn't bothered me but I don't use it very much.

It's basically a web view embedded in a native app shell. The user experience of the website it opens is designed to approximate the iOS user experience, but completely fails to do so.

I agree it's terrible, but I use it very rarely so it doesn't really impact the product experience that much.

I think you just described every cordova/phonegap/ionic app out there. Which is not to say it isn't bad :).
