Thanks for the reply. I thought I would ask here first. The project does not appear to have been active in the last few years. Earlier, the author noted in his documentation that there was a $99 per year fee to keep MobileOrg available in the Apple store (as part of a request for donations). I'm assuming the author has moved on and/or decided keeping up with the annual fee is no longer worth it to him. I don't know of any other impediment to continued availability from the Apple store. It would be great to get the author to re-publish the app and/or give permission to others to do so. MobileOrg has always worked for me and is worthy of support from the community.
