The best
Good first step, needs polishing
Like others have noted, it is wonderful that the app in itself is finally available for iOS, eliminating the needs to exclusively use a browser to read FT.
However, some features are missing, including the ability to go fullscreen while reading, which, through browsers like Safari (Reading Mode), makes it much more convinient and easy to read, by minimising distractions like related stories and links. Perhaps you could make these display elements slowly fade out of the UI as one swipes further down the story, like it is often done in reading apps.
Finally, an iPad-specific suggestion would be to make better use of the extra screen. It is evident that whenever opens an article to read, only the right part of the screen is taken by the actual text, which is both inconvenient due to it being off-centered, and also a non very wise use of the additional space of the tablets. Perhaps the aforementioned introduction of a reading mode would solve this issue to. Proof of that is how brilliantly Reader-Mode works on Safari on iPads, which make FT article-reading an even better and easier experience than before.
Keep up the good work!
Overhaul needed
This app needs an update. Its aesthetic is old and it is not well written. Compare the work done in apps like NYT or CNN
