PayPal

This app is a travesty. You would think that a major technology company with the massive financial backing of eBay, and undoubtedly the best technical support that Apple could provide, would be able to create an app that actually works well.


Instead, we get an app that seems to break all the rules of good Touch UI design. What the hell is that Login button? Couldn't you just make something that looked like a form? Even m.paypapl.com, your mobile web site, looks better than this app.

Why must I jump to Safari when I click the "Sign Up" button? You have all the power of a full-blown Cocoa Touch application at your fingertips, and instead you want to send me to a web site??

Also, why can't I select from a list of previously used payees when sending money? Your website has that feature: why doesn't your native iPhone app have it? Sure, it's great that I can select from among the contacts on my iPhone to send money, but I might not have my cable company's billing email address plugged into my iPhone...
