Extra Device Information and App Information

[Tester_D_]

Hello everyone,

I need to access some information that Cordova's Device plugin doesn't offer me, like the device's associated email, IMEI, phone number; as well as the application's version and its name. I need also to get these information on all 3 platforms (Android, iOS and Windows Phone).

I'm aware of some 3rd party plugins that does those jobs like this, this and this but most of them work for Android only. 

Furthermore, there's a concern about the reliability of those plugins found on the internet.

Do I need to write specific plugins to obtain these informations or is there an easier solution?

Thanks in advance!

Erik

If you don't like the plugins you find you'll have to write your own. We are providing a tool that makes it easier to put these things together, but we don't provide the plugins. The "Intel XDK" plugins are being phased out and are available as open source projects, but none of them provide that information.

Ok Paul!

Thank you very much for your reply

Hi Erik,

I doesn't address all of your needs, but I have been successfully using the following plugin:

uk.co.whiteoctober.cordova.appversion

It allows me to get my app's name and version information.  My app is running on iOS devices.

You can try intel.xdk.device.uuid It will give you the correct IMEI of your device.

The corresponding plugin for uuid in Cordova doesn't provide the real IMEI of a phone.

navigator.appversion() will provide your app version.
