My team has a nativescript-vue application that is targeting the iOS platform. We were trying to uniquely identify the iOS device uuid via nativescript-uuid, but that appears to no longer supported. What is the best approach to use the DeviceCheck API?

  • May I know why do you think it's not supported anymore. I think it still works. – Manoj Feb 27 '19 at 17:13

    I was having difficulty getting the UUID from the plugin, I had an error message about a password. Research into that led to this: https://medium.com/walkin/how-to-uniquely-identify-an-ios-device-8bbd292737f7 – sonoerin Feb 27 '19 at 22:17

You were right nativescript-uuid plugin is not updated to work with iOS 11 or later (DeviceCheck API).

An alternative could be using nativescript-secure-storage plugin, store the UUID you get using UIDevice.currentDevice.identifierForVendor.UUIDString for the first time, then it should return the same value even after reinstalling the app.

  • UIDevice.currentDevice.identifierForVendor.UUIDString did the trick, I am able to get the device UUID, so now I should be able to verify that against the DeviceCheck API – sonoerin Feb 28 '19 at 00:24
