How can I save an image (like using UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum() method) with a filename of my choice to the private/var folder?

If you've generated an image using Core Graphics, or perhaps rendered part of your layout, you might want to save that out as either a PNG or a JPEG. Both are easy thanks to two methods: pngData() and jpegData() , both of which convert a UIImage into a Data instance you can write out.

Kenny, you had the answer! For illustration I always think code is more helpful.
//I do this in the didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)img method
NSData* imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(img, 1.0);
//save to the default 100Apple(Camera Roll) folder.
[imageData writeToFile:@"/private/var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/customImageFilename.jpg" atomically:NO];
UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum() is only used for saving to the photos camera roll. To save to a custom folder, you need to convert the UIImage into NSData with UIImageJPEGRepresentation() or UIImagePNGRepresentation(), then save this NSData to anywhere you like.
