    Hello,

    You can get Device Id by Android.Provider.Settings.Secure for Android and UIKit.UIDevice.CurrentDevice.IdentifierForVendor for iOS.

    If you want to invoke it in the MAUI directly, please use Conditional compilation

    You can refer to the following code.

    #if ANDROID
    
                string deviceID = Android.Provider.Settings.Secure.GetString(Platform.CurrentActivity.ContentResolver, Android.Provider.Settings.Secure.AndroidId);
     
    #elif IOS
                string deviceID = UIKit.UIDevice.CurrentDevice.IdentifierForVendor.ToString();
    #endif
    

    Best Regards,

    Leon Lu
