PLIST Editor Mobile 1.4

The PLIST Editor provides comprehensive tools for creating, visualizing, editing, and saving property list (.plist) files. Its interface supports all major plist formats, including XML, Binary, and OpenStep/ASCII, while maintaining the original order of dictionary elements—an essential feature for source control workflows. Its editing capabilities are closely aligned with those of Xcode, ensuring that files edited in the application are indistinguishable from those modified within Xcode itself.

It is important to note that the free version of PLIST Editor offers basic functionalities but lacks key features such as saving documents, Find & Replace, and sorting. To unlock the full potential of the application, a one-time in-app purchase of the "Premium" version is recommended.

Major features include:

• Support for opening and saving plist files in XML, Binary, and OpenStep formats.
• Basic editing operations: cut, copy, paste, duplicate, delete, and reordering of elements.
• Source control friendliness: preservation of dictionary element order both in-memory and on disk, facilitating clear diffs in version control systems.
• Enhanced Find & Replace capabilities: targeting specific columns (key or value), with options like "Contains," "Equals To," "Starts With," "Ends With," and regular expressions.
• Sorting options for child or sibling elements based on key, type, value, or sub-key.
• Inline editing through double tapping on keys or values.
• Support for files created with NSKeyedArchiver without data loss.
• Copying elements as Swift objects or JSON data (both readable and compact formats), as well as XML, Base64-encoded Binary, and OpenStep/ASCII plist formats.
• Embedding selected elements within arrays or dictionaries and rearranging elements via shift or move operations.
• Adjustable column widths for improved readability by dragging separators.
• Export options to save files as JSON (formatted or compact) and plist formats (XML, Binary, OpenStep).
• Customizable font settings including default font selection and size.
• Auto Save toggle within settings for enhanced workflow efficiency.
• Undo & Redo functionality for non-destructive editing.
• User interface themes including Dark Mode.
• Support for portrait and landscape orientations on iPad with split view and slide-over modes.
• External keyboard support and integration with “Universal Control” features on compatible devices.
