Getting iPhone info?

[dburdan]

How can I get info on the users iPhone? For example: UDID, ECID. Stuff that I can use to verify it's identity. I mainly need to get it's UDID.

Hi Dan,

if this is not mentioned/documented in the latest iOS Release Notes (menu: Help), then you can't.

Getting the UDID is now not allowed. It used to be (and I used to do it) but then Apple deprecated it.

There is an App that is free I believe that will deliver that info available in the ap store. I cant remember the name but a search under UDID will bring it up. I guess you could instruct your user to download the UDID app, have them get there UDID, and then enter it into a field in your app to take care of the UDID business. This actualy was the process that was recomended by another developer in an app I downloaded.

Hi...

From the release notes 5.5.1 page 42... 'You can fetch the current device's unique system identifier with the iphoneSystemIdentifier() function. This returns a string in the standard UUID/GUID format.'... Just tried this on the iphone running iOS 5.1.1 and it does what it says on the tin...'This returns a string in the standard UUID/GUID format.'

be well

Yes, but Gerry is correct. At some point Apple will start rejecting apps that do this. Why not just script your own? I use two timestamps separated by a random # of msec the first time a user runs an app.
