Well with Google doing away with us using AdID I am once again on a search for a way to tell if my app is running on a device the user paid for or are they sharing Google Log Ins
I came across this code (Unique ID / Android 10 >)
Not being very good (well actually pretty bad) I took Erel's (thanks Erel) code Udp Broadcast Address and made it look like Crap but it does return my Wi-Fi Mac address on Android 11
The ONLY difference in the Mac Address it shows and my real Wi-Fi Mac Address is the one that is shown in this code starts with 16 and on my device and the Status Information shows it starting with a 14
Makes me wonder if I need to take off the FAKE IP 02:00:00:00:00:00 Taking that 02 off the first number would make everything exact.
Maybe someone could try this code and see what if outputs as far as what the Status Information page show.
