Unique Device Identifier in MAUI
I am looking for a way to get a device identifier in NET MAUI that is cross platform compliant between Android/iOS/Windows. I originally had this code working in Xamarin Forms with the following: Android Context context = Application.Context; id = Settings.Secure.GetString(context.ContentResolver, Settings.Secure.AndroidId); iOS UIDevice.CurrentDevice.IdentifierForVendor.AsString().Replace("-", ""); Is there anything currently or planned in the future for use in NET MAUI. Thanks In Advance, Stuart FergusonCan we use Maui.Essentials without Maui UI framework?
Previously Xamarin.Essencials was an independed library that could be used with non-XamarinForms applications. Currently this library was rebranded intoMaui.Essentials. Which raises a question, if this library become a part of Maui framework with hard dependency on it, or if it still can be used without this GUI framework. I don't see any references to the Maui framework at the moment exceptMicrosoft.Maui.Graphics. Still,I want to see official confirmation stated somewhere. Use cases: 1. We want to be able to build Avalonia applications and use helpers fromMaui.Essentials without referencing whole Maui framework. 2. Same about Uno Platform. It should be possible to use it withMaui.Essentials without Maui framework. 3. I also can imagine applications that are built with "net6-ios/android" targets with native UIs without "Forms" from MAUI. These applications will benefit fromMaui.Essentials without unnecessary dependency fromMaui framework. Thanks, Max Katsydan.
When might Label.FormattedText support be completed?
According to the status page:https://github.com/dotnet/maui/wiki/status Label.FormattedText is still pending. Looking at the Maui code it doesn't appear to have started yet, when is this scheduled for completion? Preview 12 would be great. 😉 Thanks John
