Got a reply..
I've contacted Stewart McCall, who deals with our online GIS. He said that the app does work with Android phones, though the panning function is a bit flaky, so he's not yet happy to promote it for other operating systems at this stage. He's looking to do some further development for Android over the next couple of weeks, however, so the situation should improve.
As regards site points potentially being incorrect, I'd pretty much guarantee that there will be some among the 40,000-plus that aren't bang on - the dataset is just too big to be certain that there aren't transcription or data input errors in it. However, if people are using the app while out and about, they can email me details of any that are incorrect, and I can update them, thereby improving the record for future users.
