When are UserDefaults written to the plist document?

Basically, when something has been changed in them. Read the docs (or Hillegass): You register some "default defaults". Since these are provided by your app at startup, NSUserDefaults doesn't need to write them to disk. That's good, because it saves the user disk space.

I guess the text-field-tabbing behavior is a case where the app you're observing reacts to a field being left by saving its value to the prefs, which looks to NSUserDefaults like a change, even though it's the same value. That's why it's saved. -- Cheers, M.
