Answer 1

Now we can not get UUID or IMEI of Android/iOS device, because System doesn't allow us.

In iOS, you can save data (key-value) in Keychain, which is persisted until you reset to factory setting for restore. So you can mostly use it as device's identifier.

Here is a simple and useful lib that help you to write/read something to/from Keychain of an iOS device.

Example:

let deviceId = UUID().uuidString
let keychain = Keychain(service: "com.example.github-token") // you can put whatever but I recommend to use your app's bundleId
keychain["device_id"] = deviceId // save it.


// In you API request function
let keychain = Keychain(service: "com.example.github-token") // same above
let deviceId = keychain["device_id"]


// Then submit this deviceId to BE then you can verify that if this device is on the whitelist or blacklist.
// If it is on blacklist, just return error to client.
