[QUOTE="Nethfel, post: 1308561, member: 89124"] Nope, not possible on the device (at lest not on a non-jailbroken device). Applications are all sandboxed, preventing App A from being able to access anything that has to do with App B. The only time you can access other apps data is if one app exports data to your app (the sending app has to support exporting data, and your app has to have registered as being able to handle the file type that the exporting app will put out) OR there is a public API allowing you to hook into the data (like the address book). Jailbroken devices are a different story, but you can't release an app on the iTunes store meant for jailbroken devices :) [/QUOTE]
