Using an iPhone 5S upgraded to IOS 8, after testing using Kismet and other pen-test tools I have found there is no MAC address randomisation by my device. Is this a feature yet to be released or is my iPhone playing up?

Perhaps you need to move the device around. Move from room to room. Just a big guess on my part.

Robert,
Thanks for the reply; that had crossed my mind so I performed a Kismet capture during a 35 mile drive. Lots of probes were captured from my iPhone which was consistently sending out the same MAC address (the one listed under device settings) each time. It should be noted that the captured probes didn't contain any wireless access point SSIDs. This isn't the answer unfortunately.
Once again thanks for the effort.

Hi Al,
Did you check this blog?

Can you replicate this?

The information contained in the blog makes perfect sense, I have to admit my location service settings were not completely off so that could be the reason for my original findings. I'll have a go with the settings suggested to see if this is indeed the case (and obviously post the answer here).
Many thanks.
