Creating a playlist in iOS?

Question

Is it possible to create, name and save an iTunes playlist like you can in the Music app from a 3rd-party programmed app? If so, how?

Answer 1

iTunes playlists (MPMediaPlaylist) are read-only, so there is currently no way to create these through a 3rd-party app. The user can only do this with iTunes or through the built-in iOS Music app.
