If that's difficult, have you tested on all versions of the OS? (2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1)
At least, have you tested the release build?
Personally, I had an app whose debug version ran fine but release build crashes. Fortunately Apple caught that.
Then, I had another app which worked fine on my iPhone (3.0 and then I tested in 2.2.1), but crashed on 2.1 and 2.2. Seems to be an Apple threading bug. I wished I tested on earlier OS.

John, thanks for the suggestion. Even though I have tested extensively, I didn't try every OS and I didn't try testing the release build. Since the app writes the default settings to the iPhone, I delete it from the phone before reinstalling/compiling again. I've caught a few bugs this way, but will not try all the OS versions. Thanks again!
