If you are aware of UDID, then you must be knowing how to get that. And that **can never be fake**. – Nitish Apr 19 '18 at 04:29

@RomOne the idea is how can you decide if this "4f526010b044ea367baa46e9160e1319889b4b22" is real UDID or not ? – Developer So far Apr 19 '18 at 05:34

As @Nitish highlighted, if you know how to get the UDID from the device, that one can't be wrong. What you what, is some kind of security check on your server maybe? Well I'm not sure if Apple provide any sort of way to check UDID. Pretty sure they will never do. – RomOne Apr 19 '18 at 05:39

Yes, it's kind of security matter. I know how to get UDID, but anyone can generate fake UDID. – Developer So far Apr 19 '18 at 05:46

There is no way to know if any UDID is "real" or not on your server.
You want to look into secure authentication procedures where the UDID is used as a key to generate a hash that is exchanged.
