Thank you for your very valuable source. But to complete my program I asked you some questions:

How to open the application in the iphone (which may already know the App Indentifier or path)?
How to delete iphone applications? (Of course, by programming)

Hi toanmh.

Lanuch application does not matter with App Indentifier or path,it matter with URL Schemes.U can add schemes in your info.plist.It should be looks like

Then u can use [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"myapp://"]] to open the application.
In my code,I use a method in MobileInstallation (a system private framework) to install IPA file.Use IDA Pro,we can find this

So,if you want delete application by programming,you should call MobileInstallationUninstall.

Hi kryhear I deleted the application is doing as you say. However, the open application maybe I have not presented clearly. I want to open the application from another application that can only be known as the application indentify (app id) or storage paths only (because some the application is not available URL Chema). Can you suggest me how to do that?
