During the development of a mobile app, customer always wants to see the progress happening in the project on regular intervals. If this is Android app, then sharing the Android Build is very much possible for developers but Apple offers a very inert environment. They do not allow to let the iPhone build be shared just like that. To enable this developers need to share the build on a specific UDID of the phone. And for that sake developers ask for UDID of the customers’ iPhones. Following article helps to know the steps as to how can you search the UDID of your iPhone whenever your developer asks you the same.
What is iOS UDID
The UDID attribute of Apple’s iOS device is short name for Unique Device Identifier. It is specific to each iPad and iPhone user. A specific id for a particular device is fetched from the Apple registry if the user wants to unlock the device using the iCloud or Setup App. When restoring the iPSW firmware, iTunes uses UDID to identify and connect with the phone. For each unit, each mixture is entirely special.
Need for iOS UDID
Only Apple-approved apps can be installed on your iPhone. Apple has licensed apps for general availability in the App Store, but trial users get to check them out before they hit the store. We register your UDID with Apple so that they can accept your app, which is particularly important for iPhone users.
