Hello Rodrigo,

Can you please provide more details about your question?

Like where you want to use it, where you want to see it?

Hi Amrita, actually I'm trying to get some unique device ID such as IMEI / UDID / ECID / Serial Number...

But the problem is that the iOS don't allow to get this kind of information anymore, so this is why I'm looking a way to get the own phone number to use as the "unique device ID"...

I have did with success the command "intel.xdk.device.uuid" to get the UUID, but it's not going to work for me because I note that everytime you reinstall the application the "UUID" is gonna change... different from the "UDID".

Definitions:

UUID (Universally Unique IDentifier) Is on a per-app basis. identifies an app on a device. As long as the user doesn’t completely delete the app, then this identifier will persist between app launches, and at least let you identify the same user using a particular app on a device. Unfortunately, if the user completely deletes and then reinstalls the app then the ID will change.

UDID (Unique Device Identifier) A sequence of 40 hexadecimal characters that uniquely identify an ios device. This value can be retrieved through iTunes, or found using UIDevice -uniqueIdentifier. Derived from hardware details like MAC address.

 

In my case, I need a unique ID to be able to have a specific internal track of the iOS devices!

(Note: This application is intended for internal use only for the company I work for.)

Thanks!

There are Cordova plugins that will allow access to the UDID, but like you said depending on the platform, it may no longer be allowed.

Hi JOHN , you are right ! Apple no long allow the access to get the UDID on iOS devices.

But I still need to get some kind of unique ID. I'll keep researching, and if have some news I'll post in here!

By the way, if some one know a way to get any kind of ID like MAC Address, own phone number, etc. I'll appreciate that!

Thanks!
