Find your device ID

Platno installs only on iPhones and iPads Nermin has registered. This page finds your device's ID so you can send it to him. It takes about a minute.

  1. This page must be open in Safari. In Chrome or inside another app (Viber, WhatsApp, Mail) the button does nothing: copy platno.pages.dev/udid into Safari.
  2. Tap Find my device ID. A message says the website is trying to download a configuration profile: tap Allow. On iPad it may ask which device: choose iPad.
  3. Next you see Profile Downloaded: tap Close. Nothing has happened yet; the next step is in Settings.
  4. Go to the home screen and open the Settings app (grey gear icon). At the very top, just under your name, tap Profile Downloaded.
    Not there? In Settings tap General, scroll down to VPN & Device Management, then Platno: device ID. Still nothing? The download expires after 8 minutes: start again from step 2.
  5. Tap Install at the top right and enter your device passcode (the one that unlocks the screen). Tap Install once more if asked.
  6. Safari opens by itself with your device ID: a long code of letters and numbers. Tap Copy and paste it into a message to Nermin.

The profile only asks the device for its ID and model and sends them to this page. Nothing stays installed and nothing is stored. A web page is not allowed to open Settings by itself, which is why step 4 is done by hand.
