Not sure if it was intentional or not, but my saved pages (I had 2 of them)
were cleared when I upgraded from beta #14 to #15.

The latest beta release is the first to include code to migrate saved pages from the old PhoneGap app to the new native app. If your saved pages were deleted, I suspect it's due to the code to do this being added to this release.

We should make sure that this doesn't happen every time the app is upgraded. Repurposing this bug for that.

There was also a bump in internal versioning in the iOS betas, which we didn't include an upgrade for as it was a funky transition in the data model.

We should probably be more careful about that though yeah.

Since I filed this bug, there hasn't been any breakage in this area :)
