iOS & Android peripheral ID uniqueness

[eddiewilkie1]

Hi there,

I was wondering if you would be able to tell me if the MAC address on Android and the UUID on iOS are stable? ( i.e not likely to change over time). I've read around that the UUID on iOS is a randomly generated identifier and could change from device to device (and on network resets). I couldn't find anything in the apple documentation that would confirm this though. Similiar for Android I've read that the MAC address is retrieved from the peripheral and not altered but I have read that this varies based on Android OS versions. Would appreciate if you guys would be able to debunk these findings!

Thanks!
