I believe this app is smartphone-focused and not tablet-focused. I think tablet users are meant to use the full site in the tablet's mobile browser.

Please, please, this should be an easy fix.

More often than not I for one find that simply clicking on an app as opposed to going to a browser is easier. Would it be a major task to add a landscape viewing mode tht can be used on the iPad?

FT iPhone app
Any news concerning the last read message bug and an upcoming iPad mode?
Also, when do you guys plan to release a new version which supports the iPhone 5's larger screen?

It's slated to be fixed in the next app update. Hopefully soon.
The process of updating this is a hard-coding issue with a whole separate piece of software, not related to the FT website. That's why app changes take longer; they are supported by a different dev team, and updates are not made ad-hoc, but according to a batch-friendly method of pushing changes out to the app stores.

Unfortunately this is not going to be available on the iPhone or Android app. At some point perhaps there will be a tablet app; but there's currently no schedule for that development. For now, just use the full site on the tablet's mobile browser.
