您已经可以使用Apple UDID的替代方案了。gekitz在UIDevice上写了category，它会根据设备mac地址和包标识符生成某种UDID。

你可以在github上找到代码

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。

如果用户卸载和重新安装应用程序，CFUUIDCreate创建的UUID是唯一的:你每次都会得到一个新的UUID。

但你可能希望它不是唯一的，即它应该保持不变，当用户卸载和重新安装应用程序。这需要一些努力，因为最可靠的每个设备标识符似乎是MAC地址。您可以查询MAC并使用它作为UUID。

编辑:当然，总是需要查询同一接口的MAC。我想最好的选择是en0。MAC一直存在，即使接口没有IP/ down。

编辑2:正如其他人指出的那样，自iOS 6以来首选的解决方案是-[UIDevice identifierForVendor]。在大多数情况下，你应该可以使用它来替换旧的-[UIDevice uniqueIdentifier](但是当应用程序第一次启动时创建的UUID似乎是苹果想要你使用的)。

编辑3:所以这个重点不会在评论噪音中丢失:不要使用MAC作为UUID，使用MAC创建哈希。哈希每次都会创建相同的结果，即使是在重新安装和应用程序之间(如果哈希以相同的方式完成)。不管怎样，现在(2013年)这已经没有必要了，除非你在iOS < 6.0上需要一个“稳定的”设备标识符。

编辑4:在iOS 7中，苹果现在在查询MAC时总是返回一个固定值，以专门阻止MAC作为ID方案的基础。所以你现在应该使用-[UIDevice identifierForVendor]或者创建一个每个安装的UUID。

苹果在iOS 11中添加了一个名为DeviceCheck的新框架，它将帮助你非常容易地获得唯一标识符。 阅读此表格了解更多信息。 https://medium.com/@santoshbotre01/unique-identifier-for-the-ios-devices-590bb778290d

从iOS 7开始，苹果在所有公共api中都隐藏了UDID。任何以FFFF开头的UDID都是假ID。以前工作的“发送UDID”应用程序不能再用于为测试设备收集UDID。(叹息)

当设备连接到XCode(在管理器中)时，UDID会显示出来，当设备连接到iTunes时(尽管你必须单击“Serial Number”才能显示标识符)。

如果你需要获取设备的UDID来添加到配置配置文件中，并且不能自己在XCode中完成，你将不得不从iTunes中复制/粘贴它。

自iOS 7发布以来，是否有一种方法可以在PC/Mac上不使用iTunes获得UDID ?

如果有人在寻找替代方案时偶然发现了这个问题。我在IDManager课上就采用了这种方法， 这是不同解的集合。KeyChainUtil是一个从keychain读取的包装器。 您还可以使用散列MAC地址作为一种唯一ID。
