Reading on iOS devices now working normally

OCTOBER 11th 2012 | We have fixed an issue that was preventing users from using the "read online" option on iOS devices.

We have fixed an issue that was preventing readers from using the "read online" option on iOS devices. You can now use your iPad or iPhone with both of the available reading options: Read Online and Download. Reading and reviewing stories on an iPad is really fun, and your iPhone lets you keep up with ANA everywhere you go.

And don't forget: you can win an iPad of your own just for posting reviews!
