According to TechCrunch Apple will apparently be phasing out access to the unique device identifier (UDID), on iPhones and iPads. Basically in a nutshell UDID was used to identify users especially for game networks, mobile ad networks etc, but by getting shot of UDID app publishers will have to create their own UDID to keep track.
