我相信苹果公司的这一变化惹恼了很多人。我开发了一个iOS的簿记应用程序，并有一个在线服务来同步不同设备上的更改。该服务维护所有设备的数据库以及需要传播到这些设备的更改。因此，了解哪种设备是哪种设备很重要。我使用UIDevice uniqueIdentifier跟踪设备，为了它的价值，这里是我的想法。

Generate a UUID and store in user defaults? No good because this does not persist when the user deletes the app. If they install again later the online service should not create a new device record, that would waste resources on the server and give a list of devices containing the same one two or more times. Users would see more than one "Bob's iPhone" listed if they re-installed the app. Generate a UUID and store in the keychain? This was my plan, since it persists even when the app is uninstalled. But when restoring an iTunes backup to a new iOS device, the keychain is transferred if the backup is encrypted. This could lead to two devices containing the same device id if the old and new devices are both in service. These should be listed as two devices in the online service, even if the device name is the same. Generate a hash the MAC address and bundle id? This looks like the best solution for what I need. By hashing with the bundle id, the generated device id is not going to enable the device to be tracked across apps and I get a unique ID for the app+device combination.

有趣的是，苹果自己的文档提到通过计算系统Mac地址加上bundle id和版本的哈希来验证Mac App Store收据。所以这似乎是政策允许的，但是否通过应用审查我还不知道。

iOS 11引入了DeviceCheck框架。它有一个完整的解决方案，唯一地识别设备。

不要使用这些库——libOmnitureAppMeasurement，它使用了苹果不再支持的uniqueIdentifier

我还建议从uniqueIdentifier转换到这个开源库(2个简单的类别)，它利用设备的MAC地址和应用程序捆绑标识符在应用程序中生成一个唯一的ID，可以用作UDID的替代品。

请记住，与UDID不同，这个数字对每个应用程序都是不同的。

你只需要导入包含的NSString和UIDevice类别，并调用[[UIDevice currentDevice] uniqueDeviceIdentifier]，就像这样:

#import "UIDevice+IdentifierAddition.h"
#import "NSString+MD5Addition.h"
NSString *iosFiveUDID = [[UIDevice currentDevice] uniqueDeviceIdentifier]

你可以在Github上找到它:

带有UniqueIdentifier的UIDevice

下面是分类(只有。m文件-检查github项目的头文件):

可以帮助: 使用下面的代码，它将永远是唯一的，除非你擦除(格式)你的设备。

objective - c:

选项1:这将在每次安装时更改

UIDevice *uuid = [NSUUID UUID].UUIDString;

选项2:这将是唯一的每个供应商/开发者苹果帐户

UIDevice *myDevice = [UIDevice currentDevice];
NSString *uuid = [[myDevice identifierForVendor] UUIDString];

斯威夫特5。X:

选项1:这将在每次安装时更改

let uuid = UUID().uuidString

选项2:这将是唯一的每个供应商/开发者苹果帐户

let myDevice = UIDevice.current
let uuid = myDevice.identifierForVendor?.uuidString

我也遇到了一些问题，解决方法很简单:

    // Get Bundle Info for Remote Registration (handy if you have more than one app)
    NSString *appName = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleDisplayName"];
    NSString *appVersion = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleVersion"];


    // Get the users Device Model, Display Name, Unique ID, Token & Version Number
    UIDevice *dev = [UIDevice currentDevice];
    NSString *deviceUuid=[dev.identifierForVendor  UUIDString];

    NSString *deviceName = dev.name;
