Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/133

I'm using LiveContainer so that I can inject dylibs into the app(s). However, I realize now that because a new data folder is created for the containers, I can't use the pre-existing app data. Would it be possible for LiveContainer to use the existing /var/mobile/Applications folder with respect to the app name (and version if you really want to be sure nothing goes wrong)?

LiveContainer is completely sandboxed and is not allowed to read or write outside of the data container itself.
