Sent some feedback through to them (not that I think it will ever get anywhere). This whole "we want the app to be more of a personal assistant" spiel is a poor idea, poorly executed, and the bandwagoning of skinny-text-and-lots-of-it has a ring of Windows Phone 7 (RIP) circa 2010 all over it.

Or to quote from my feedback, with my Digital development hat on:
The use of conversational prose (not to mention a uniform excessively light font weight) throughout for conveying information makes it much more difficult to quickly scan and parse the important information and is bad for readability. The app also does not respect the iOS "Bold text" setting, which is poor from an accessibility point of view.
