My IDFA is all 0s. How do I get a unique IDFA?
I'm working on an app, and for Facebook Ads, to test the ads, you need to give Facebook your device's IDFA. I've tried to get my IDFA by writing this snippet (see bottom of post), and running it on my phone. My phone is running iOS 14.4 This program tells me my IDFA is "nothing". My current understanding is this means I've enabled some privacy setting that does this. What I've tried: Under Privacy > Apple Advertising, I turned on Personalized Ads. Under Privacy > Tracking, I enabled Allow Apps to Request to Track After doing this, I check my IDFA and it's still all 0s (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000). Can someone tell me how I get a non-zero IDFA? import SwiftUI import AdSupport struct ContentView: View {     var body: some View {         Text(identifierForAdvertising())             .padding()     } } struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {     static var previews: some View {         ContentView()     } } func identifierForAdvertising() -> String {     // check if advertising tracking is enabled in user’s setting     if ASIdentifierManager.shared().isAdvertisingTrackingEnabled {         return ASIdentifierManager.shared().advertisingIdentifier.uuidString     } else {         return "nothing"     } }
