UDID is deprecated, and it's use is no longer allowed, you must use UUID.

It has drawbacks and benefits compared with UDID.

- (NSString *)uuidString {
// Returns a UUID

    CFUUIDRef uuid = CFUUIDCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault);
    NSString *uuidStr = (__bridge_transfer NSString *)CFUUIDCreateString(kCFAllocatorDefault, uuid);


    return uuidStr;
}

• UDID always returned a unique and consistent ID. UUID whilst unique will return different every time. You need to store in user defaults or whereever and only generate if it's not already there.
