I’ll be working on a cryptographic app for iPad soon. Along to some other features, I’d like to be able to get documents within the iPad’s file system to work with them.
So far, I haven’t experimented with that, but I’ve seen apps such as pdf readers that don’t share their files with other apps and can’t reach files belonging to other apps. Is it possible -and legal- to reach all the files in the iPad from an app?
Thank you very much!
No. This is not possible unless you Jailbreak your device. All applications are sandboxed and can only access files they are in the their individual sandbox.
