iOS identify user(s)

I am building app that will serve some content to the users via my private server. At the server-side I would like to identify user, so that I don't serve same content twice to the same user. How can I identify user(s)?

One way is DeviceID, but user can have multiple devices...?

Is the only way to have my own user IDs for my application (registration). I don't like this as it adds extra complexity to the app.

I know it's a hard task, but maybe facial recognition (from the webcam) could help in logging in users, since it doesn't imply any relation between user and device. For example, face.com offers a free web-based API for facial recognition.

Although, Ishu's answer (username/password) is the easiest and most standard way to do identify users.

Make an id for user's and also a login page in the app. save his id with in you content table for send that content for that user. if that content entry already having his id then don't send to him otherwise send to him.

I don't think there is another option. You must use user id nothing else.
