About a year ago I wrote a post[1] about how I couldn't get google to index my AngularJS app. My main problem was the interaction between googlebot and the S3 server. I'll have to go back and test if the crawler's behavior will render the correct content.

Do you have a sitemap.xml for common routes.. also is your angular app actually doing routing (hash based or push state)?
I have the .html5Mode set to true so it was routing based on push state.

I hadn't gotten around to creating a process to generate the sitemap.xml before I gave up on the site. For SEO, we were more concerned with getting the time sensitive content indexed.
