Filesystem:/Applications

Summary
This is where all of the pre-installed native apps, as well as native jailbreak apps (from Cydia and elsewhere), are installed. They can't be deleted under normal circumstances. One can delete them on a jailbroken device through some sort of file-management tool such as SSH or iFile, although doing this is highly unrecommended as they can't be re-installed. Cydia will move this directory to the user partition and create a symlink to it. /Applications --> /var/stash/Applications.*****

NOTE: In the title, the asterisks represent randomly generated characters that are generated when the folder is created and symlinked

App Store apps are installed by iTunes in the /var/mobile/Applications folder.

Children
This directory typically contains only application bundles.

Unofficial apps
These application bundles are not present on an unmodified system and are generally installed via a PC utility, manually or through a package. More applications may be installed after jailbreak.


 * Installer.app (AppTapp Installer)
 * blackra1n.app (blackra1n and limera1n)
