    If speed is not crucial, you can simply write:

    NSString *string = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://example.com/str.txt"]];
    

    However, if you want to be elegant, idiomatic and secure (if the above code times out, iOS will kill your app!), use NSURLConnection, or simply wrap the above code into an NSThread.

    NSThread docs: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSThread_Class/Reference/Reference.html

    NSURLConnection docs:

    Hope it helps.
