You can use the following function for creating the UUID:

func getUniqueDeviceIdentifierAsString() -> String {
    var appName: String? = (Bundle.main.infoDictionary?[(kCFBundleNameKey as? String)] as? String)
    var strApplicationUUID: String = SSKeychain.password(forService: appName, account: "incoding")
    if strApplicationUUID == nil {
        strApplicationUUID = UIDevice.current.identifierForVendor.uuidString
        SSKeychain.setPassword(strApplicationUUID, forService: appName, account: "incoding")
    }
    return strApplicationUUID
}
