Create a writable folder on iOS device

How does one create a read/write folder on the same level as the Documents directory? Is there a way to set the directory used in file sharing on iOS between iTunes and an app, or is it hard coded to the Documents directory?

On a non-jailbroken device, you cannot create a read/write folder on the same level as the Documents directory. Additionally, there is not way to change the directory used in file sharing.

If you need to create files and want to keep them away from file sharing, there are other writable directories that can be used. This SO question & answer deals with that quite well.
