This is something first phase requirement I needed for my application.
I want to design a WIPE-OUT application, This application will WIPE-OUT all the data.
I want a flow like this:
- Install our WIPE-OUT app from AppStore
- This app will have access to Documents directory (like in Android have access to File Manager)
- User can delete, rename and move the files of document directory (using our application)
- Those files are anything (PDF or word file downloaded from Mail, Photos from camera of FB or anything)
- In short same FileManager app which will have access to my iPhone storage and I can delete the data which is in non-recoverable.
As per my knowledge, it is not possible.
My question is,
- Is it possible in some other way and will apple approve the app?
- If it is not possible, then please share me link for the same.
As mentioned in the comments it is not possible.
This Apple Guideline will actually be responsible for the rejection
2.6 Apps that read or write data outside its designated container area will be rejected
