MAC id deprecated in iOS 7
Making UniqueIndentifier using the MAC ID not going to work on IOS 7. Need some other technique if possible.
Hi. I'm using macaddress to identify device. Could you tell me which string will be generated by '- macaddress' method on iOS 7? Is its output always the same?
Are you sure that MAC address won't be available? I'm testing on iOS7 Simulator and the MAC address is retrieved fine.
@lubbo You may not retrieve MAC address on iOS7 device. I found apple document mentioned about it.

In iOS 7 and later, if you ask for the MAC address of an iOS device, the system returns the value 02:00:00:00:00:00. If you need to identify the device, use the identifierForVendor property of UIDevice instead. (Apps that need an identifier for their own advertising purposes should consider using the advertisingIdentifier property of ASIdentifierManager instead.)
Do someone have any resource link to know how to manage a "UUID migration" ?
I found out that one of my app user crashed because uniqueGlobalDeviceIdentifier method somehow return nil on iOS 7. This is weird since most of the users have mac address 02:00.......
