PlainText transition + bug + solution

I’ve sold PlainText to 433 labs. My version will be removed at the end of the week.

Unfortunately, my most recent PlainText release (earlier today) includes a bug that crashes the app after viewing a notification about the sale and new app. And that makes it difficult to export your iCloud and local document data. It was not my intention, sorry about that.

There are three solutions:

  1. You can use iExplorer from to browse an export the files from your iOS device. To get your iCloud documents browse to: iExplorer/iOS device name/iCloud/PlainText/Documents. For local documents browse to: iExplorer/iOS device name/Apps/PlainText/Documents. For Dropbox documents, they are already stored in your Dropbox folder.

  2. To retrieve your iCloud documents you can also try going to https://developer.icloud.com/ and signing in with your Apple ID. You can then browse all of your iCloud data, including your PlainText files in the folder: 64A5CLJP5W~com~hogbaysoftware~PlainText.

  3. You can also just wait until my next (and last) release of PlainText shows up in the app store. It should fix the bug if all goes well.

Thanks,
Jesse
