刚刚发现，UIDevice uniqueIdentifier属性在iOS 5中已弃用，在iOS 7及以上版本中不可用。似乎没有可供选择的方法或属性。
我们现有的许多应用程序都紧密依赖于这个属性来唯一地识别特定的设备。今后我们该如何处理这个问题?
2011-2012年的文件建议:
特殊注意事项 不要使用uniqueIdentifier属性。创建特定的唯一标识符 你可以调用CFUUIDCreate函数来创建一个UUID，然后写入 使用NSUserDefaults类将它转换到默认数据库。
但是，如果用户卸载和重新安装应用程序，这个值就不一样了。
当前回答
您可能想要考虑使用OpenUDID，它是已弃用UDID的临时替代品。
基本上，要匹配UDID，需要以下特性:
唯一的或足够唯一的(低概率碰撞是 可能是可以接受的) 跨重启、恢复、卸载的持久性 在不同供应商的应用程序中可用(通过CPI网络获取用户很有用)-
OpenUDID实现了上述功能，甚至有一个内置的选择退出机制供以后考虑。
检查http://OpenUDID.org，它指向相应的GitHub。 希望这能有所帮助!
作为旁注，我将回避任何MAC地址的替代方案。虽然MAC地址似乎是一种诱人的通用解决方案，但要确保这个唾手可得的果实是有毒的。MAC地址是非常敏感的，在你说“提交这个应用程序”之前，苹果可能会非常反对访问这个地址……MAC网络地址用于对wlan (private lan)或其他vpn (virtual private network)中的某些设备进行认证。它甚至比以前的UDID更敏感!
其他回答
获得UDID的有效方法:
Launch a web server inside the app with two pages: one should return specially crafted MobileConfiguration profile and another should collect UDID. More info here, here and here. You open the first page in Mobile Safari from inside the app and it redirects you to Settings.app asking to install configuration profile. After you install the profile, UDID is sent to the second web page and you can access it from inside the app. (Settings.app has all necessary entitlements and different sandbox rules).
一个使用RoutingHTTPServer的例子:
import UIKit
import RoutingHTTPServer
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid
let server = HTTPServer()
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
application.openURL(NSURL(string: "http://localhost:55555")!)
return true
}
func applicationDidEnterBackground(application: UIApplication) {
bgTask = application.beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler() {
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {[unowned self] in
application.endBackgroundTask(self.bgTask)
self.bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid
}
}
}
}
class HTTPServer: RoutingHTTPServer {
override init() {
super.init()
setPort(55555)
handleMethod("GET", withPath: "/") {
$1.setHeader("Content-Type", value: "application/x-apple-aspen-config")
$1.respondWithData(NSData(contentsOfFile: NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("udid", ofType: "mobileconfig")!)!)
}
handleMethod("POST", withPath: "/") {
let raw = NSString(data:$0.body(), encoding:NSISOLatin1StringEncoding) as! String
let plistString = raw.substringWithRange(Range(start: raw.rangeOfString("<?xml")!.startIndex,end: raw.rangeOfString("</plist>")!.endIndex))
let plist = NSPropertyListSerialization.propertyListWithData(plistString.dataUsingEncoding(NSISOLatin1StringEncoding)!, options: .allZeros, format: nil, error: nil) as! [String:String]
let udid = plist["UDID"]!
println(udid) // Here is your UDID!
$1.statusCode = 200
$1.respondWithString("see https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/iPhoneOTAConfiguration/ConfigurationProfileExamples/ConfigurationProfileExamples.html")
}
start(nil)
}
}
下面是udid.mobileconfig的内容:

配置文件安装将失败(我没有费心实现预期的响应，请参阅文档)，但应用程序将获得正确的UDID。你还应该在mobileconfig上签名。

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):

#import "UIDevice+IdentifierAddition.h"
#import "NSString+MD5Addition.h"

你可以通过以下代码实现:uidevice -with- uniqueidentifier -for ios -5
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。
