Storing data on iOS

For those who have gone before me:

I have some files that are downloaded from a server and stored on the 
device. The files will be updated periodically. I don't want to download 
them repeatedly unless they've changed.

Apple says not to store data in the documents folder if it can be 
retrieved from elsewhere. That makes me think I should keep it in the 
cache folder. But I'd rather it was backed up so the user doesn't need 
an internet connection if they want to use the app and the cache has 
been wiped.

Where would you store the files?
