other best option recommend by apple use ASIdentifierManager Class Reference

ios7-app-backward-compatible-with-ios5-regarding-unique-identifier

this link tell you how to handle and use custom framework

iOS 9

NSUUID *uuid = [[NSUUID alloc]initWithUUIDString:@"20B0DDE7-6087-4607-842A-E97C72E4D522"];
NSLog(@"%@",uuid);
NSLog(@"%@",[uuid UUIDString]);

or

it support only ios 6.0 and above

code to use [[[UIDevice currentDevice] identifierForVendor] UUIDString];

NSUUID *deviceId;
#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
deviceId = [NSUUID initWithUUIDString:@"UUID-STRING-VALUE"];
#else
deviceId = [UIDevice currentDevice].identifierForVendor;
#endif

ios 5 to use like

 if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] respondsToSelector:@selector(identifierForVendor)]) {
    // This is will run if it is iOS6
    return [[[UIDevice currentDevice] identifierForVendor] UUIDString];
} else {
   // This is will run before iOS6 and you can use openUDID or other 
   // method to generate an identifier
}
