How to get the wifi mac address on iPhone in Swift?
When you request the Device MAC address in iOS 7 and above you will always get the same response: 02:00:00:00:00:00, this has been made by Apple for privacy concerns.
In iOS 7 and later, if you ask for the MAC address of an iOS device, the system returns the value 02:00:00:00:00:00. If you need to identify the device, use the identifierForVendor property of UIDevice instead. (Apps that need an identifier for their own advertising purposes should consider using the advertisingIdentifier property of ASIdentifierManager instead.)
Apple recommends to switch to UDID
instead if you need to uniquely identify an iOS device. In Swift
you can use this:
UIDevice.currentDevice().identifierForVendor
if you want a string instead use:
UIDevice.currentDevice().identifierForVendor.UUIDString
Here's a nice reading about UDID
This is no longer possible since iOS 7, due to privacy risks Apple does not allow developers to access any device specific identifiers.
