Can an iPhone xcode application read cookies previously stored by Safari Mobile?

Question

Can an iPhone application read cookies previously stored by Safari Mobile?

Answer 1

You might want to check

if ([[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] cookieAcceptPolicy] != NSHTTPCookieAcceptPolicyAlways) {
    [[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] setCookieAcceptPolicy:NSHTTPCookieAcceptPolicyAlways];       
}

But apparently NSHTTPCookieStorage does not even hold cookies from the last request in the current application on iOS (rdar://8190706)
