OK, I'll bite and I've had a play in Chrome and iPhone.
Minor feedback
1. Too tall on the iPhone. You have to scroll to get to the lower nav which
is not the norm on the iPhone in my experience. I understand this isn't an
"App" however.
2. Icons are not great res. They look very blurry on my iPhone 4 and could
probably do with a bit of vert space.
The thing that is immediately clear to me however is non technical:
3. Actions section is "coming soon"
4. Timesheets is just a manual entry grid for each day of any given week
So my major feedback would be: What is the goal of this app? As it stands,
it seems to be a timesheet program for manually entering time that you have
to keep track of yourself anyway, and not in any way linked to a given task
or project. There are quite a number of applications, especially for the
iPhone and Adobe Air that do all of that. But the main reason why people
look for these apps is to save themselves from keeping conscious track of
time over multiple projects whilst working. I.E. A start/pause/stop timer
and project/milstone/task heirachy.
5. Finally, the one issue I have with Safari based "apps" on the iPhone is
that unless their navigation is very clear, it is too easy to forget the
fact that you are viewing a web page (rather than an app) and hit the
browser back button. Thus leaving the application altogether. An example is
hitting the sync button. Takes you to a login form. First reaction is to hit
the browser back button. Second reaction is to press the login form's cancel
button. "Don't make me think".
Looking at this, It is nice use of HTML5, but I don't really see any
functional use or productivity
improvement in it (yet), even if I was using your PM solution in conjunction
with it.
Not sure if you were after application specific feedback, technical level
feedback, or both. But there it is.
Take a look at "Billings" by MarketCircle for some ideas. There is a free
version in iTunes and it is very slick indeed. Time Edition have the basic
model of these things done well too. However I get the feeling
Projects/Milestones/Tasks will need to play with your PM model first and
foremost.

Hi Berend,
The main reason was because the data is relational in nature and the
key-value pair storage provided by Firefox would've become a problem
very quickly. Also, the SQLite interface is support on both the iPhone
and Android and the primary goal of this app is to provide timesheets
on your mobile with offline support.
Kind regards,
Bruce
