Refer to this for the plist changes you need to make:

To edit the plist you need to find it inside the LiveCode app bundle.
Thanks Monte, that works.
For the benefit of future thread-readers, some tips it took me a while to
figure out:
a) The above linked doc from apple refers to adding a CFBundleDocumentTypes
array to your plist. In the plist for a MacOS application, a
CFBundleDocumentTypes array can include CFBundleTypeExtensions array listing
file extensions. However, using that same array in the iOS plist doesn't
work. Instead, you need to add a UTExportedTypeDeclarations array to the
plist, which links file extensions to UTTypeIdentifiers; then you can add the
CFBundleDocumentTypes array with a CFBundleTypeName referencing the
UTTypeIdentifier.
b) If you do all that - then the other bit you need to know is to handle the
"urlWakeUp" message - that's where your iOS app will get the file reference.
Fortunately, Monte introduced me to that message just a couple of days ago on
a separate thread!
