The SO API is read-only, so I assume this app won't allow you to submit questions/answers/comments etc.

Here's a post about it from Kevin Montrose (API dev @ SE): http://kevinmontrose.com/2012/02/01/stack-exchange-api-v2-0-...

Unfortunately correct until SE adds write support to the API, which we're told is in the works. For now, we provide a simple way to open questions in Mobile Safari which of course doesn't have this restriction.
