Fantastic, thanks Rob.
Hi Rob, I see this note on the Friday daily build (1063):
iOS: system.getInfo( “deviceID” ) will return a different value from previous builds because Apple is officially deprecating the old API (https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=3212013a).
In the latest daily build docs I don’t see info mentioning what that system.getInfo(“deviceID”) will be returning on iOS. Did it get changed on Friday to the Vendor ID?
Thanks
I believe there was talk about grabbing the MAC address which is still unique per network interface. I’m guessing it’s the WiFi one. This still doesn’t address Apple’s concerns about device tracking, it’s just not the UDID. Also this doesn’t deal with 3rd party vendors that may be getting the UDID from something other than our Lua call. But it’s a start.
Check out Daily Build 1095 for support for Apple’s iOS 6 advertising IDs … the following new system.getInfo() options are available:
" iosAdvertisingIdentifier" On iOS, returns the “advertisingIdentifier” for use in advertising logic.
" iosAdvertisingTrackingEnabled" On iOS, returns the value of “advertisingTrackingEnabled” for use in advertising logic.
" iosIdentifierForVendor" On iOS, returns the value of “identifierForVendor” for use in advertising logic.
Let me know what you think.
That’s terrific, thank you Perry.
