Question

I was wondering if it was possible to use iCloud to sync an app’s preferences file between devices. The preference file I am talking about is the com.domain.appname.plist file created by NSUserDafults to store the app’s preferences.

I would like to have the option of keeping my app’s preferences file in sync between two different devices (an iPad and an iPhone, for example). Is this an acceptable use of iCloud syncing? Or would I need to convert the plist file into a different type of document, store it on the cloud, and convert it back into the app’s preferences file upon retrieving it?

thanks!
