Find my UDID without a Mac?

I need to test a beta app from my developer but they need my UDID. I DON"T HAVE A MAC. A Google search revealed several sites that ask me to download something that is supposed to install a "Profile" (i.e., showmyudid.com and get.myudid.io) ... they do NOT; they just go to my "Downloads", and when I click on them nothing happens, they dont' install any profile (I deleted both and hope they're not stealing my data as we speak). All I know is, I need to find my stupid UDID and don't have a Mac. Any help greatly appreciated.

Apparently, nothing is simple with an Apple iPhone. It is almost as if Apple wants to intrude on every segment of one’s personal life?


My iPhone 13 Mini & SE were provided by their respective carriers because they both are smaller than those gigantic monster-size Android phones from Samsung (I wanted a cell phone, not a tablet disguised as a cell phone).


Is there anyplace where I can use as a reference that just has simple solutions for simple tasks? There doesn’t seem to be a “User Guide” on board in the iOS 16 or its native software. I suppose that give the fact that they cannot achieve an iOS that works the same way on two (2) models, a 13 Mini, & an SE, each using iOS16.


I have had mobile phones since the old IMTS phones hardwired into the car, survived individualized OS in my Blackberry for ~25+ years because it offered a PKB which provided tactile feedback (VKB have no, Zero, tactile feedback, just hesitate over a spot over the VKB virtually guarantees a typo), however, PKB cell phone are no longer available, but the BB OS at least had that one trade off)


Apple iPhones definitely has the size advantage over the Samsung Androids, which are better suited for use as an anchor for my boat, but I need to find a resource that provides simple instructions for it idiosyncratic, & different input responses on differing contemporaneous models using the the same iOS.


The iPhones are the most reliable in the cell phone mode & alone in its physical size (except for the small VKB the guarantees typo’s) that is a critical factor, but I still need a resource that is portable for availability & which can function as a “smartphone” user guide in non-technical jargon which can be understood by a baby-boomer generation M.D./Ph.D.

Given that iPhones were invented by Baby-boomers, I'm not sure I understand why you assume that those of us in this group are technologically inept. A significant majority of the regulars, the ones who provide a lot of the answers here, are Baby Boomers. There are also a number of regulars in this forum who are members of the Silent Generation.


If you have questions about how your phones work, you should definitely ask questions here. But, I recommend you start your own threads rather than appending your questions to threads that don't seem to be related. You're more likely to get helpful answers that way.
