Todo.txt Touch iOS testers, opt into testing the app using this URL:

http://tflig.ht/nsf0LW

Once I approve you for testing, you'll get an email to download
Todo.txt Touch for iOS onto your device, and you can start testing it.
Three things:

1. BACKUP YOUR TODO.TXT FILE BEFORE YOU BEGIN USING THE APP.

2. Depending on the volume of interest we get, I'm going to approve
testers on a "do I know you?" basis. If you're already a Todo.txt
developer and user, ie, I recognize your name from the mailing list
and on GitHub, I will approve you right away. If I don't recognize
you, I will wait in order to give active community members preference.
There's a 100-person limit to how many testers we can have, which
Apple enforces.

3. BACKUP YOUR TODO.TXT FILE BEFORE YOU BEGIN USING THE APP.
Seriously. This app has not been tested thoroughly so treat it as
alpha software--double back up your todo.txt data before you start
using it. You're responsible for making sure you don't lose data.

Syncing to Dropbox, settings, and sorting all work in the iOS version.
Filtering is not yet implemented. You can send feedback about the app
in the Settings pane--please do that, or send feedback here on the
list.

Thanks to Charles, Jeff, and Shawn for all their help with the app and
TestFlight,
Gina

to add you API key. I thought it'd be good for people to leave feedback so I
added in the preferences section a button for that, which calls the TestFlight
feedback view and all the feedback will show up in TestFlight when you upload
the build. I didn't add any checkpoints because I'm not sure where we'd want to
put them or how often.
