Moodle has a new official HTML5 app due out in the coming months. it looks like it will do some pretty interesting stuff including:

It is intended as a clone of the official but now unsupported Moodle Mobile iOS-only app that was launched by Moodle HQ in 2011 and subsequently pulled in 2012 before HQ embarked on a new HTML5 app direction. In fact, Moodle HQ hired the developer of this app, Juan Leyva, to build upon UMM as the foundation of the next official Moodle Mobile app.
