TiUUID library as alternative to the old good UDID and identifierForVendor.
This library provides the simplest API to obtain universally unique identifiers with different persistency levels. All methods can be called as static methods or via the shared instance.
It's possible to retrieve the UUIDs created for all devices of the same user, in this way with a little bit of server-side help it's possible manage guest accounts across multiple devices easily.
Download the latest distribution ZIP-file and consult the Titanium Documentation on how install it, or simply use the gitTio CLI:
$ gittio install it.scsoft.tiuuid
I encourage everyone to send Pull Requests - keeping this module flying with new features.

Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(tiuuid.uuidsOfUserDevices()));##API All the following methods (excluding the last one) return a different Universally Unique Identifier, each one with its own persistency level.
//changes each time (no persistent)
tiuuid.uuid();
//changes each time the app gets launched (persistent to session)
tiuuid.uuidForSession();
//changes each time the app gets installed (persistent to installation)
tiuuid.uuidForInstallation();
//changes each time all the apps of the same vendor are uninstalled (this works exactly as identifierForVendor)
tiuuid.uuidForVendo()r;
//changes only on system reset, this is the best replacement to the good old udid (persistent to device)
tiuuid.uuidForDevice();
//returns the list of all uuidForDevice of the same user
//in this way it's possible manage guest accounts across multiple devices easily.
