It's not very intuitive to have to enter the full url, rather than just the hostname when logging into the app.

May I suggest the app automatically try /app if the initial connection fails? That way we won't be breaking compatibility in case people have it forwarded that way (for some reason) but the barrier for entry get slightly lowered for those who wish to use the server.
