The file is meant to zip the contents of a temporary folder in the ~/temp/somefolder.

Not sure wether you make your users happy if you add a folder for your application specific stuff in such a random location. For temporary stuff, /tmp is a good choice and you can trust for it to exist, to be writeable and almost trust for it to be local (unlike Home).

You should probably use one of the dedicated API:s for returning that directory, for example:

NSString *tmpPath = NSTemporaryDirectory();
