I don't want to overwhelm anyone with the details of what I am trying to do, but in a nutshell, I am trying to develop a mobile AIR app for real estate agents that is customizeable that they can give to their clients and, and when the client installs it, it will look like the real estate agent wrote it themselves and will have their branding in the app.
To do this, I need to save a unique identifier from any Android or iOS device that installs the app. Apparently, this is inconsistent approach and not supported across all devices, so I can't do something simple like store a MAC address or a UDID because not all devices will allow access to these identifiers, so I would get inconsistent results. The only consistent identifiers that I have been able to narrow down are Advertising ID's. These are provided by both iOS and Android devices and there are ANE's available that will give you access to these identifiers. What I am concerned with is this - I am not using them to provide Ads to my users. I just need to know who a user is and associate them with a real estate agent consistently. Does anyone know if Apple or Google will throw up a fuss if you try to submit an app to the app store that uses an Advertising ID, but is not using it to serve up ads???
