Thanks. I did not see a box requesting my email address, only the privacy notification, which is why I started wondering. I use an iPad 3, iOS 6, issue repeatable, open app in portrait mode, then rotate to landscape. Width does not adjust. When I open it in landscape more, issue does not present itself. Edit: ah, found the box, it shows up shortly after launching the app, as a pop-up. The message in this pop-up (Please register and support us, it's free) is somewhat unclear. How does it support you? Also, I would suggest that you show that pop-up immediately after the privacy notification. OK, gonna to log in now!

Ah, right, we can reproduce that. Good catch, we will look into it. Edit: We're showing the box 20 minutes into the app because we figure that if you don't want to use it for more than 20 minutes, you didn't really like it. But in combination with the privacy policy I can see how it seems disturbing - we might need to change that. You're supporting us because investors keep asking us "how many people have registered with you". By registering you increase the number we can tell them. We can also keep you informed about other potential future Appser releases which you might like. Like say Appser for Cloud9 IDE or something similar.

  Supporting (to me) implies adding some kind of value. If things are free, I'm the product. I'd clarify this, that's all (or simply remove the 'supporting' phrasing)

Other issues: Perhaps unavoidable, but I opened a google document, typed "hello mister how is this working for you" tried to position the cursor before the first 'i' in that line, and the blinking cursor appears over the s. Expanding selection by dragging also isn't clear. Tried copying the selection using the right-click menu (long-press) but this resets the selection. Repeated selection. Tried copying selection via edit menu (not really convenient) and then I get a notification I need to install the web drive app to support cutting and pasting. Perhaps this can be solved by adding cut/paste to the menu bar. I would not mind having left/right cursor control in that bar too (but I can see how that would interfere with the history function).

  The somewhat-off positioning of the cursor is a known issue and we're still attempting to fix it. We're also looking into implementing the API part of Google Drive required for clipboard access to enable copy and paste.

    Without copy/paste it's gonna be a hard 'sell' (to me). Is there any way to copy/paste at the moment that I might have missed?

      Not yet, sorry. But it looks very doable so far and its definitely our first priority.

      Turns out there is a workaround. In the Edit menu there is "Web Clipboard", you can use it for now.
