The apps are currently screen scraping (boo!) so any change in the HTML structure would kill them. We need to make sure that changes are backwards compatible so as to not break the apps.
Will stop mattering once we get #35396 done.

Currently, the footer text is missing. Otherwise everything else seems to work.
This was resolved in MobileFrontend as of Change-Id: Ibc4994
Tested v1.0.x, v1.1.x and v3.1.x (iOS) with the beta. The footer text disappears, but otherwise everything else works perfectly fine.
