The companyoriginally announced its intentions to phase out the UDID's use more than six months ago, with the release of iOS 5, but it recently began to reject apps from the App Store which are attempting to access those identifiers.Today, the makers of a crash-reporting solution for mobile developers, Crashlytics, is launching an open source alternative to the UDID called SecureUDID, which it believes will address the privacy concerns surrounding UDID usage.
