Will information saved in standardUserDefaults go away with app update?
A newbie question - I'm using [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] to store user
specified preferences. While testing my app, I see that the stored preferences
disappears if I delete and re-install the app on my iphone. I'm wondering if same will
happen when an user installs a subsequent updated version of the app? Does re-installing
from xcode (without actually deleting the app from phone) simulate the app update
scenario?

I'm not sure if rebuilding with Xcode simulates an update, but user defaults are preserved when actually updating an application. Your application will continue reading their current values as usual.
