Zam Huang commented on CB-9963:
-------------------------------
i would like to solve this issue, and i will add keychain to keep uuid unique
even uninstall and reinstall.
i guess it should be same behavior like android or windows-phone always return
same uuid.
can any committer assign issue to me?
> iOS uuid should remain even after uninstall

> Key: CB-9963
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9963
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugin Device
> Environment: iOS
> Reporter: Mike Murkovic
> Labels: apple
> Original Estimate: 12h
> Remaining Estimate: 12h

> The readme states that an iOS quirk is that it is using the
> identifierForVendor, which remains immutable until every app by one vendor is
> uninstalled. Typically I'd imagine developers are making one app - and so if
> the single app gets uninstalled, they lose the uuid and it appears to be a
> "new" device on reinstall.
> Instead, we should consider using the CFUUIDCreate to create a unique ID on
> startup, and insert it into the SSKeyChain of the device. Then when an app is
> installed, it should check to see if there already is a UUID in the key chain
> before generating a new one. Example:
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7273014/ios-unique-user-identifier/8677177#answer-8677177
> If the device is flashed or reinstalled, then I guess it will still be a
> problem. I wish we could get a totally unique ID for that actual physical
> device.
