Application folder name changes every time i run in simulator

Question

Whenever I restart my application it's folder name in finder is changed from

09323D3F-D371-4556-ABA3-BD23AF487F12

to

E771BBEC-ACC6-489C-B7C1-B5FF11004CB2/

NSHomeDirectory() is changing everytime I run the app in simulator.

Don't save the full path, but just the directory and file name to the images. Since this behaviour is new in iOS 8 and will happen on a real device.

save your file path like as follows :

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];

NSString *localFilePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[[yourArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.section]lastPathComponent]];

Application folder name changes every time i run in simulator
