When I exit out of an App, everything is released? Or if I have any pointer-arrays(malloc), do I have to release the pointers before exiting the App?
thanks

This is not defined by the C specification (and thus not formally defined in Objective-C) but on iOS and all other modern operating systems, when a process terminates, its memory is returned to the system. So yes, any such pointers will be freed appropriately, though C++ destructors and Objective-C
-deallocimplementations will not be run.
