How to maintain cookie in iOS?

I'm trying to do login using UIWebView. On success it stores cookie in NSHTTPCookieStorage. It's working fine for a single session.

But if I force close the app and come back to app, it ask me for login. Whereas it's cookie is already stored.

Also I referred this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/8713316/2594560. But my sessionOnly:FALSE and expiration date is also set.

Below is code:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let request = NSURLRequest(URL: NSURL(string: "https:serverURL/show_all")!)
    webView.loadRequest(request)
}

If user is not login then this will redirect to login page, but if user is login then it should display this "show_all" page. It works with the cookie. But if I force close app and restart app, then it's redirecting to login.

Please guide me how to achieve this.

where is code for cookie ? when you force close app your webview don't have that previous cookie with it and it tries to create new one. – Varun Naharia Nov 17 '15 at 05:11
But when I check NSHTTPCookieStorage on viewDidLoad() I'm able to get the cookie value – Ankita Shah Nov 17 '15 at 05:14
yes it is in the stored in variable but not in webview, I think you have to set that in webview – Varun Naharia Nov 17 '15 at 05:17
But UIWebView won't automatically take cookie value from NSHTTPCookieStorage? – Ankita Shah Nov 17 '15 at 05:21
