Hi, I don't know whether you can do it on Android, but on the iPhone you can send in-app emails since iPhone OS 3.0 (in-app SMS comes with 4.0). That means that with a few lines of code, you can invoke the same "send new email" dialog as the built-in mail app uses. You can pre-fill the recipient, subject and body; once sent, the email shows up in your sent folder in the mail app. You already need to have an email address when deploying to the app store anyway. A lot of apps use email for feedback, typically on the "About" page.
Once this is set up, you can decide what to do with the email - you can use an alias and forward the email to yourself and possibly some other guys, or you can have JIRA poll the email account and create an issue for you (technically, JIRA is an issue tracker, not a ticketing system, but many people use it that way). And you can change this without changing the app. So if you can do that easily on Android, I'd go for the email. If not, you may be able to have at least a "mailto:"; link in your app which is probably handled by the mail app on Android. It'll throw the user out of the app, but it's better than trying to do your own JIRA integration IMHO (only a minority of your users will ever give you feedback, so don't spend too much time on this).
