App Profile: Topics - News and Stock

Yup. It says iPhone and iPad, so why isn’t it optimized for iPad? I opened Topics, chose my interests, it opened a full screen … upside down. I poked around, hoping to have it rotate but it turned on its side, and I closed Topics. It would have to be a phenomenol app to get me to turn my iPad on its side in order to read but there are so many well designed apps that fill the same niche that I won’t put up with the irritation. I don’t know why any developer insists on this limitation. It can’t be that hard to make it work- really work- for iPad users. So, I’m off to delete it without ever finding out if it’s something useful for me. Pity, isn’t it?
