    No, you can’t change anything in your application bundle. You must download you plist file to some folder in application sandbox (documents or caches) and read it from there.

    Your possible workflow for reading that plist can be:

    1. Check if plist file is present at download location. If yes – read it from there
    2. If it is not present – read plist shipped with your bundle (or copy plist file from bundle to download location and go to step 1 – this way workflow may be a bit more consistent)
