These Mac/iOS apps are great but making their site mobile compatible would benefit more people immediately IMHO.
Yikes, that completely custom, non-standard UI is pretty jarring for me.
I agree - this (to me) is indicative of the difference between an application that intends to be useful to me vs. one that is useful to the provider.
One falls into the woodwork, presenting a painfully standardized and predictable interface, enabling me to do things instead of "using an app". The other calls attention to its existence, and challenges me to "explore" instead of "use"

I thought it's quite a fresh breath of air from all the other apps. Conventions be damned!
It does not seem native...was probably made with Titanium or Phonegap.
Do people use GitHub Issues? Is there something that it's best at compared to the alternatives?
If you're evaluating it against a full blown bug/requirements tracking system like JIRA, Fogbugz or similar it is fairly lacking.
If you want a dead simple, integrated, free (with your github subscription) bug tracking system that lets you close issues via git commit messages it is just what is called for.

When I click on the "download it today" button, it forwards me to a not found page in the app store. :(
Yes, same experience here, but doing a search popped it right up.
This should be a direct link to it.
