Yes,
here is an simple example:
https://gist.github.com/matzew/80ef7d756c15ca774907
Run a simple app like that in Xcode:
1) in "application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions" we create the
(persistent) PList store
2) once the app becomes "active",the "didFinishLaunch" log statement
shows
an empty store (surprise :))
2a) Afterwards, we save some values into the store (note:
the entry requires @"id" as it's field...).
3) Now, on your phone, kill the iOS app (see [1] if not sure how to do that)
4) start the app, via Xcode, again - and see the "didFinishLaunch" log
statement now shows the values, we stored before on the "
applicationDidBecomeActive" delegate function.
Do you think we should be more clear on this in our docs ?

thank you for your response Matthias. i want to clarify my first
question
more. so, i created my data store like this when user launched the app.
// create the datamanager
AGDataManager* dm = [AGDataManager manager];
// add a new (default) store object:
id<AGStore> myStore = [dm store:^(id<AGStoreConfig> config) {
[config setName:@"tasks"];
[config setType:@"PLIST"];
}]
then user switched to some other app and my app eventually terminated.
then user came back to my app again. how do i retrieve the data store i
created above? does this work (seems like it won't, as i lost my data
manager above):
// create the datamanager
AGDataManager* dm = [AGDataManager manager];
// add a new (default) store object:
id<AGStore> myStore = [dm storeWithName:@"tasks"]

MEM -> run of the app;
PList -> property list => pers. storage on the file system (sandbox style)

store PList and use the "Reachability" class (Apple example OR
