One way to do this is use the application's document directory. This is specific to a application and will not be visible to other applications.
How to create this:
Just add a static function to App Delegate and use the function where ever the path is required.

- (NSString )applicationDocumentDirectory {
    /
     Returns the path to the application's documents directory.
     */ 
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    NSString *basePath = ([paths count] > 0) ? [paths objectAtIndex:0] : nil;
    return basePath;
}

Hope it Helped..
