How do I get my UDID from iPhone?

Answered by Randy McIntyre

To find your UDID on your iPhone, you’ll need to connect your device to your computer and use Finder. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you retrieve your UDID:

1. Connect your iPhone to your Mac using a Lightning cable.

2. Open Finder on your Mac. You can do this by clicking on the Finder icon in your dock or by selecting Finder from the Applications folder.

3. In the Finder sidebar, you should see your iPhone listed under the “Locations” section. It will usually be named after your device, such as “John’s iPhone” or “iPhone 12 Pro Max.” Click on your iPhone’s name to select it.

4. Once you’ve selected your iPhone, you’ll see a summary of its information appear in the main Finder window. Look for the details section, which includes information like capacity, software version, and serial number.

5. To reveal your UDID, click on the text that says “Serial Number.” This will toggle the display to show your UDID instead.

6. To copy your UDID, right-click on it and select “Copy UDID” from the context menu that appears. Alternatively, you can press Command + C on your keyboard to copy it.

7. Now, you can paste your UDID wherever you need it. You can paste it into an email, text document, or any other application that accepts text input.

It’s important to note that the UDID is a unique identifier for your device and can be used by developers or support teams to identify your specific iPhone. However, due to privacy concerns, Apple has phased out the use of UDIDs in many applications. Therefore, you might not need to retrieve your UDID as often as before.
