iOS 5 UUID Possible Replacements

###UUID Possible Replacements

  • Open UUID
  • Mac Address
    • Privacy concerns? (Perhaps just do MD5 hash)
  • UIPasteboard
    • Bit "hacky" and possibly unreliable
    • Should be relatively solid however, still looking.
  • iCloud
    • iCloud is broken. Plus, the overhead is far too much.
  • Solution based on MAC Address
    • Seems to work between apps (still looking into it)
    • github source
