IAP, Tables(save files) and Game versions (sum up of 3 questions)

I asked myself this..

Question 1:

Are tables remaining saved on the players device even if they download a new version of the game?

Question 2:

If the developer changes/adds new table cells with content to the already existing table. Does this conflict with the existing saved table?

Details:
Version 1.0 is live and the saving table works perfectly fine.
I now work on Version 1.1 of the game. I add new features and I need to save more values now. The idea is to just add new cells into the existing table.
Now I worry if this maybe would conflict with the table version saved on the player devices. The worst case is that their table gets overwritten and their progress is lost.

Question 3:

How would I test versioning to figure it out by myself?

    1. Be patient
    2. Yes tables once saved are perminant.
    3. If you alter a table it will overwrite the saved table. Best to add a new table.
    4. Just install your first build via testflight save something and then add an updated build to testflight and install new build it works the same as an appstore update.
