One issue: how to move data from old app to new - and separate - app? On a Mac it's easy, because everything has access to the full file system. On iOS, apps are blocked from anything outside their "sandbox". I gave up on one desirable iOS app because I'd entered a pile of data in the free version, and couldn't move any of it to the new/paid version.

- mikeash 13y agoMac App Store apps are also sandboxed, so the same problem would arise.
- shadesandcolour 13y agoWith iCloud this is super easy (or the new dropbox apis), but if the developer has set it up properly, there are a few ways to migrate data. It can be encoded and opened up as a url is the easiest way that I can think of.
