How to determine the current iPhone/device model?

Question

Is there a way to get the device model name (iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5S, etc) in Swift?

I know there is a property named UIDevice.currentDevice().model but it only returns device type (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, iPhone Simulator, etc).

I also know it can be done easily in Objective-C with this method:

#import <sys/utsname.h>

struct utsname systemInfo;
uname(&systemInfo);

NSString* deviceModel = [NSString stringWithCString:systemInfo.machine
                          encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

But I'm developing my iPhone app in Swift so could someone please help me with the equivalent way to solve this in Swift?

Answer 1

I made this "pure Swift" extension on UIDevice.

If you are looking for a more elegant solution you can use my µ-framework DeviceKit published on GitHub (also available via CocoaPods, Carthage and Swift Package Manager).

Here's the code:

import UIKit

public extension UIDevice {

    static let modelName: String = {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)
        let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)
        let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8, value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
        }

        func mapToDevice(identifier: String) -> String { // swiftlint:disable:this cyclomatic_complexity
            #if os(iOS)
            switch identifier {
            case "iPod5,1":                                       return "iPod touch (5th generation)"
            case "iPod7,1":                                       return "iPod touch (6th generation)"
            case "iPod9,1":                                       return "iPod touch (7th generation)"
            case "iPhone3,1", "iPhone3,2", "iPhone3,3":           return "iPhone 4"
            case "iPhone4,1":                                     return "iPhone 4s"
            case "iPhone5,1", "iPhone5,2":                        return "iPhone 5"
            case "iPhone5,3", "iPhone5,4":                        return "iPhone 5c"
            case "iPhone6,1", "iPhone6,2":                        return "iPhone 5s"
            case "iPhone7,2":                                     return "iPhone 6"
            case "iPhone7,1":                                     return "iPhone 6 Plus"
            case "iPhone8,1":                                     return "iPhone 6s"
            case "iPhone8,2":                                     return "iPhone 6s Plus"
            case "iPhone9,1", "iPhone9,3":                        return "iPhone 7"

            #elseif os(tvOS)
            switch identifier {
            case "AppleTV5,3": return "Apple TV 4"
            case "AppleTV6,2", "AppleTV11,1", "AppleTV14,1": return "Apple TV 4K"
            case "i386", "x86_64": return "Simulator \(mapToDevice(identifier: ProcessInfo().environment["SIMULATOR_MODEL_IDENTIFIER"] ?? "tvOS"))"
            default: return identifier
            }
            #elseif os(visionOS)
            switch identifier {
            case "RealityDevice14,1": return "Apple Vision Pro"
            default: return identifier
            }
            #endif
        }

        return mapToDevice(identifier: identifier)
    }()

}

You call it like this:

let modelName = UIDevice.modelName

For real devices it returns e.g. "iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (5th generation)", for simulators it returns e.g. "Simulator iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (5th generation)"

Here's the solution updated for October 2024. It includes the most recent iPhone, iPad, Watch, iPod, Apple TV, and HomePod:

extension UIDevice {

        let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8, value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
        }

        switch identifier {
            // MARK: - iPhone

Answer 3

Here is more additional system info

extension UIDevice {
static var deviceModel: String {
    var size: Int = 0
    sysctlbyname("hw.model", nil, &size, nil, 0)
    var model = [CChar](repeating: 0, count: size)
    sysctlbyname("hw.model", &model, &size, nil, 0)
    let abiType = String(cString: model)
    return abiType
}

struct OSInfo {
    let sysname: String?
    let nodename: String?
    let release: String?
    let version: String?
    let machine: String?
}

static func osInfo() -> OSInfo {
    var systemInfo = utsname()
    uname(&systemInfo)        
    let sysname = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.sysname) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity: 1) { String(cString: $0) }
    }
    let nodename = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.nodename) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity: 1) { String(cString: $0) }
    }
    let release = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.release) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity: 1) { String(cString: $0) }
    }
    let version = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.version) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity: 1) { String(cString: $0) }
    }
    let machine = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.machine) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity: 1) { String(cString: $0) }
    }
    return OSInfo(sysname: sysname, nodename: nodename, release: release, version: version, machine: machine)
}

static var osBuildNumber: String? {
    let versionString = ProcessInfo.processInfo.operatingSystemVersionString
    let pattern = "Build (\\w+)"
    do {
        let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: pattern, options: [])
        let nsString = versionString as NSString
        let results = regex.matches(in: versionString, options: [], range: NSRange(location: 0, length: nsString.length))
        
        if let match = results.first {
            let buildNumberRange = match.range(at: 1)
            return nsString.substring(with: buildNumberRange)
        }
    } catch {
        print("Error creating regex: \(error)")
    }
    return nil
}

}

Answer 4

Swift 5.x, both device & simulator WITH ENUMS(to check whatever group or model you prefer)

---

(always checked and updated!)

with the last: iPad 10th generation, iPhone 16 ALL VERSIONS and Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) , (updates also for all iPods, Apple Watches and Apple TVs)

This method detects the correct model even if it's a simulator. (The exact name for the simulator device model running in your simulator)

With this answer you can check multiple device in few lines thanks to the enums

example:

var myDefaultFontSize: CGFloat = 26.0
switch UIDevice().type {
    case .iPhoneSE, .iPhone5, .iPhone5S: print("default value")
    case .iPhone6, .iPhone7, .iPhone8, .iPhone6S, .iPhoneX: myDefaultFontSize += 4
    default: break
}

This is the code:

public enum Model : String {

//Simulator
case simulator     = "simulator/sandbox",

//iPod

Usage: You can simply get the device model with:

let deviceType = UIDevice().type

or print the exact string with:

print("Running on: \(UIDevice().type)")
Output -> "iPhone X"

Another example with cases:

var myDefaultHeight: CGFloat = 30.0
switch UIDevice().type {
    case .iPhoneSE, .iPhone5, .iPhone5S: print("default value")
    case .iPhone6, .iPhone7, .iPhone8, .iPhone6S, .iPhoneX: myDefaultHeight+= 5
    case .iPhone11, .iPhone12, .iPhone13: myDefaultHeight+= 10
    default: break
}

P.S.: I've made a little new asyncronous experiment here (direct connection with THEIPHONEWIKI site, without long static device list in source code.

Answer 5

If you want the 'human-readable' device name for running unit tests in Simulator, e.g. iPhone SE (3rd generation) instead of iPhone14,6, use Apple's own "SIMULATOR_DEVICE_NAME":

let deviceName = ProcessInfo().environment["SIMULATOR_DEVICE_NAME"] ?? "unknown"
print(deviceName) // Prints: iPhone SE (3rd generation)

💡 This is the same naming you find in the Xcode run destinations dropdown, as well as in xcrun simctl list.

---

There's no (longer) need to use libraries for this use case, nor your own mapping of "SIMULATOR_MODEL_IDENTIFIER", so we have an opportunity to clean up our code bases. 🧹

Answer 6

Works for me

var sysinfo = utsname()
uname(&sysinfo)
let data = Data(bytes: &sysinfo.machine, count: Int(_SYS_NAMELEN))
let model = String(cString: [UInt8](data)) //iPhone13,1

Answer 7

I recently worked on the development of this swift package:

https://github.com/EmilioOjeda/Device

The main advantage it has - I think - is that it is code-generated. So whenever a new Xcode version is released, all I have to do is to run a script and get the swift package updated.

How does code generation work?

It reads and parses the devices' data from Xcode's databases (per platform) to identify the device that is running - and provide the information for it.

And it's usage...

import Device
// or => 'import iPhoneOSDevice' <= iPhoneOS-only device data
// or => 'import tvOSDevice' <= tvOS-only device data

// A representation of the running device - it could be either actual or simulated.
let device = Device.current

// It is 'true' when running on a physical device.
_ = device.isDevice

// It is 'true' when running on a simulator instance.
_ = device.isSimulator

// It is 'true' when the device does not match either simulators or physical devices.
_ = device.isUnknown

// The identifier for the device.
// i.e.: 'iPhone15,3'
let id = device.id

// The known/commercial name of the device.
// i.e.: 'iPhone 14 Pro Max'
let model = device.model

Answer 8

Here is a new library for detecting apple devices

import DeviceDetector

let detector = DeviceDetector.shared
let deviceName = detector.currentDeviceName
let deviceSet = detector.currentDevice
        
let information = """
Model: \(deviceName)
iPhone?: \(detector.isiPhone)
iPad?: \(detector.isiPad)
Notch?: \(detector.hasSafeArea)
        
4inch?: \(DeviceSet.iPhone4inchSet.contains(deviceSet))
4.7inch?: \(DeviceSet.iPhone4_7inchSet.contains(deviceSet))
iPhoneSE?: \(DeviceSet.iPhoneSESet.contains(deviceSet))
iPhonePlus?: \(DeviceSet.iPhonePlusSet.contains(deviceSet))
iPadPro?: \(DeviceSet.iPadProSet.contains(deviceSet))
"""

Result

Answer 9

Using Swift 3 (Xcode 8.3)

    func deviceName() -> String {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)
        let str = withUnsafePointer(to: &systemInfo.machine.0) { ptr in
            return String(cString: ptr)
        }
        return str
    }

Note: According to official dev forum answer, it is safe to use tuples in this way. Memory alignment for the big Int8 tuple will be the same as if it were a big Int8 array. ie: contiguous and not-padded.

Answer 10

WikiDevice

the asynchronous library that gives you the answer from theiphonewiki

A crazy little experiment for automation fans like me. I made this algorithm that reads the identification code of the device, physical or simulated, and load the theiphonewiki page to extrapolate the model name based on the identification code (example iPhone11,2 -> iPhone XS). The algorithm interfaces with the WIKI page using the internal Wiki API Sandbox tool that allows you to have a JSON response, however the content is not obtainable in JSON (just the part that was needed, that is the wikitables) so I parsed the HTML content to get to the device name, without using third parts HTML parsing libraries.

PROS: always updated, you don't need to add new devices

CONS: asyncronous answer using the wiki page from web

I've made another sample extension on UIDevice to include simulator model identifier base on @HAS's answer . It's working fine with Swift3.2 above(include Swift 4.x, Swift 5):

let modelName = UIDevice.current.modelName

New add Models: iPod touch (7th generation), iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (4th generation)

        #else
            var systemInfo = utsname()
            uname(&systemInfo)
            let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)
            let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
                guard let value = element.value as? Int8, value != 0 else { return identifier }
                return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))

Answer 12

For swift4.0 and above used below code:

let udid = UIDevice.current.identifierForVendor?.uuidString
let name = UIDevice.current.name
let version = UIDevice.current.systemVersion
let modelName = UIDevice.current.model
let osName = UIDevice.current.systemName
let localized = UIDevice.current.localizedModel

print(udid ?? "")
print(name)
print(version)
print(modelName)
print(osName)
print(localized)

Answer 14

This Swift 3.0 example returns the current device model as an enum constant (to avoid direct comparisons to string literals). The enum's raw value is a String containing the human-readable iOS device name. Since it is Swift, the list of recognized devices only includes models recent enough to support iOS releases that include Swift. The following usage example utilizes the implementation at the end of this answer:

    switch UIDevice().type {
    case .iPhone5:
              print("No TouchID sensor")
    case .iPhone5S:
              fallthrough
    case .iPhone6:
              fallthrough
    case .iPhone6plus:
              fallthrough
    case .iPad_Pro9_7:
              fallthrough
    case .iPad_Pro12_9:
              fallthrough
    case .iPhone7:
              fallthrough
    case .iPhone7plus:
              print("Put your thumb on the " + 
                     UIDevice().type.rawValue + " TouchID sensor")
    case .unrecognized:
              print("Device model unrecognized");
    default:
              print(UIDevice().type.rawValue + " not supported by this app");
    }

Your app should be kept up-to-date for new device releases and also when Apple adds new models for the same device family. For example, iPhone3,1 iPhone3,2 iPhone3,4 are all "iPhone 4". Avoid writing code that doesn't account for new models, so your algorithms don't unexpectedly fail to configure or respond to a new device. You can refer to this maintained list of iOS Device Model #'s to update your app at strategic times.

iOS includes device-independent interfaces to detect hardware capabilities and parameters such as screen size. The generalized interfaces Apple provides are usually the safest, best supported mechanisms to dynamically adapt an app's behavior to different hardware. Nevertheless, the following code can be useful for prototyping, debugging, testing, or any time code needs to target a specific device family. This technique can also be useful to describe the current device by its common/publicly recognized name.

Swift 3

// 1. Declare outside class definition (or in its own file).
// 2. UIKit must be included in file where this code is added.
// 3. Extends UIDevice class, thus is available anywhere in app.
//
// Usage example:
//
//    if UIDevice().type == .simulator {
//       print("You're running on the simulator... boring!")
//    } else {
//       print("Wow! Running on a \(UIDevice().type.rawValue)")
//    }

Answer 15

There is a helper library for this.

Swift 5

pod 'DeviceKit', '~> 2.0'

Swift 4.0 - Swift 4.2

pod 'DeviceKit', '~> 1.3'

if you just want to determine the model and make something accordingly.

You can use like that :

let isIphoneX = Device().isOneOf([.iPhoneX, .simulator(.iPhoneX)])

In a function :

func isItIPhoneX() -> Bool {
    let device = Device()
    let check = device.isOneOf([.iPhoneX, .iPhoneXr , .iPhoneXs , .iPhoneXsMax ,
                                .simulator(.iPhoneX), .simulator(.iPhoneXr) , .simulator(.iPhoneXs) , .simulator(.iPhoneXsMax) ])
    return check
}

Answer 16

Yet another/simple alternative (model identifier reference found at https://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/Models):

Updated answer for Swift 3/4/5 including string trimming and simulator support:

func modelIdentifier() -> String {
    if let simulatorModelIdentifier = ProcessInfo().environment["SIMULATOR_MODEL_IDENTIFIER"] { return simulatorModelIdentifier }
    var sysinfo = utsname()
    uname(&sysinfo) // ignore return value
    return String(bytes: Data(bytes: &sysinfo.machine, count: Int(_SYS_NAMELEN)), encoding: .ascii)!.trimmingCharacters(in: .controlCharacters)
}

Answer 17

Simplest way to get model name (marketing name)

Use private API -[UIDevice _deviceInfoForKey:] carefully, you won't be rejected by Apple,

// works on both simulators and real devices, iOS 8 to iOS 12
NSString *deviceModelName(void) {
    // For Simulator
    NSString *modelName = NSProcessInfo.processInfo.environment[@"SIMULATOR_DEVICE_NAME"];
    if (modelName.length > 0) {
        return modelName;
    }

    // For real devices and simulators, except simulators running on iOS 8.x
    UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
    NSString *selName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"_%@ForKey:", @"deviceInfo"];
    SEL selector = NSSelectorFromString(selName);
    if ([device respondsToSelector:selector]) {
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Warc-performSelector-leaks"
        modelName = [device performSelector:selector withObject:@"marketing-name"];
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
    }
    return modelName;
}

How did I get the key "marketing-name"?

Running on a simulator, NSProcessInfo.processInfo.environment contains a key named "SIMULATOR_CAPABILITIES", the value of which is a plist file. Then you open the plist file, you will get the model name's key "marketing-name".

Answer 18

You can use BDLocalizedDevicesModels framework to parse device info and get the name.

Then just call UIDevice.currentDevice.productName in your code.

Answer 19

Based on this answer and this answer. I've created a public gist

How it can be used

let boolean: Bool = UIDevice.isDevice(ofType: .iPhoneX)
// true or false

let specificDevice: DeviceModel.Model = UIDevice.modelType
// iPhone6s, iPhoneX, iPad etc...

let model: DeviceModel = UIDevice.model
// .simulator(let specificDevice), .real(let specificDevice),
// .unrecognizedSimulator(let string), .unrecognized(let string)

let modelName: String = UIDevice.model.name
// iPhone 6, iPhone X, etc...

This is the code inside the gist

public extension UIDevice {
    public static var modelCode: String {
        if let simulatorModelIdentifier = ProcessInfo().environment["SIMULATOR_MODEL_IDENTIFIER"] { return simulatorModelIdentifier }
        var systemInfo = utsname()

Answer 21

My simple solution grouped by device and support new devices iPhone 8 and iPhone X in Swift 3:

public extension UIDevice {
    var modelName: String {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)
        let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)
        let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8, value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
        }

        switch identifier {
        case "iPhone3,1", "iPhone3,2", "iPhone3,3", "iPhone4,1":
            return "iPhone 4"

        case "iPhone5,1", "iPhone5,2", "iPhone5,3", "iPhone5,4", "iPhone6,1", "iPhone6,2", "iPhone8,4":
            return "iPhone 5"

        case "iPhone7,2", "iPhone8,1", "iPhone9,1", "iPhone9,3", "iPhone10,1", "iPhone10,4":
            return "iPhone 6,7,8"

        case "iPhone7,1", "iPhone8,2", "iPhone9,2", "iPhone9,4", "iPhone10,2", "iPhone10,5":
            return "iPhone Plus"

        case "iPhone10,3", "iPhone10,6":
            return "iPhone X"

        case "i386", "x86_64":
            return "Simulator"
        default:
            return identifier
        }
    }
}

And use:

switch UIDevice.current.modelName {
  case "iPhone 4":
  case "iPhone 5":
  case "iPhone 6,7,8":
  case "iPhone Plus":
  case "iPhone X":
  case "Simulator":
  default:
}

Answer 22

Swift 3.0 or higher

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    let device = UIDevice.current

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        let model = device.model
        print(model) // e.g. "iPhone"

        let modelName = device.modelName
        print(modelName) // e.g. "iPhone 6"  /* see the extension */

        let deviceName = device.name
        print(deviceName) // e.g. "My iPhone"

        let systemName = device.systemName
        print(systemName) // e.g. "iOS"

        let systemVersion = device.systemVersion
        print(systemVersion) // e.g. "10.3.2"

        if let identifierForVendor = device.identifierForVendor {

            print(identifierForVendor) // e.g. "E1X2XX34-5X6X-7890-123X-XXX456C78901"
        }
    }
}

and add the following extension

extension UIDevice {

    var modelName: String {

        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)

        let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)

Answer 24

SWIFT 3.1

my two cents for simply calling utsname:

    func platform() -> String {
    var systemInfo = utsname()
    uname(&systemInfo)
    let size = Int(_SYS_NAMELEN) // is 32, but posix AND its init is 256....

    let s = withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &systemInfo.machine) {p in

        p.withMemoryRebound(to: CChar.self, capacity: size, {p2 in
            return String(cString: p2)
        })

    }
    return s
}

as other did, but a bit cleaner about all the intricacy of C/Swift and back. ):

Returns values such as "x86_64"

Answer 27

I found that a lot all these answers use strings. I decided to change @HAS answer to use an enum:

public enum Devices: String {
    case IPodTouch5
    case IPodTouch6
    case IPhone4
    case IPhone4S
    case IPhone5
    case IPhone5C
    case IPhone5S
    case IPhone6
    case IPhone6Plus
    case IPhone6S
    case IPhone6SPlus
    case IPhone7
    case IPhone7Plus
    case IPhoneSE
    case IPad2
    case IPad3
    case IPad4
    case IPadAir
    case IPadAir2
    case IPadMini
    case IPadMini2
    case IPadMini3
    case IPadMini4
    case IPadPro
    case AppleTV
    case Simulator
    case Other
}

public extension UIDevice {

    public var modelName: Devices {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)
        let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)
        let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8 , value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
        }

        switch identifier {

}

Answer 28

If you do not want to keep updating your code everytime Apple adds a new model to a device family, use the method below returning you the model code only.

func platform() -> String {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)
        let modelCode = withUnsafeMutablePointer(&systemInfo.machine) {
            ptr in String.fromCString(UnsafePointer<CChar>(ptr))
        }

        return String.fromCString(modelCode!)!
}

Answer 29

In Swift 3 it'd be

 UIDevice.current.model

Answer 30

There are some problems with the accepted answer when you're using Swift 3! This answer (inspired from NAZIK) works with Swift 3 and the new iPhone models:

import UIKit


public extension UIDevice {
var modelName: String {
    #if (arch(i386) || arch(x86_64)) && os(iOS)
        let DEVICE_IS_SIMULATOR = true
    #else
        let DEVICE_IS_SIMULATOR = false
    #endif

    var machineString = String()

    if DEVICE_IS_SIMULATOR == true
    {
        if let dir = ProcessInfo().environment["SIMULATOR_MODEL_IDENTIFIER"] {
            machineString = dir
        }
    }
    else {
        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)

        machineString = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8 , value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
