title: How do I launch an iOS app upon startup?
body: <p>I am working on a project where the iPad will be used for a specific purpose, and only run one app. When the device starts up, I want my app to run, and I want to override the home button so that it does not quit the app (like the iPhone/ iPod demos in the store). </p>
  
  <p>I have seen bits and pieces of this functionality, but am unsure how to implement it. I realize that it would have to be on a jailbroken device, and the client is fine with that.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!<br>

  <p>Edit 1: I found <a href="http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=224341" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this site</a>, which explains some iOS daemons. I'm still researching, so I'll just keep posting what I find. </p>
  
  <p>Edit 2: I found Saurik's IRC channel and asked around in there. One of the participants told me that it is possible, but probably not as simple as I thought. I am still doing some digging around in the iPhone 3G filesystem now just to get the feel of what certain things do. </p>
  
  <p>The project has been scrapped, but I'm still looking for help on this though....just cuz I'm interested lol.</p>
