Is there a way to determine the device running an application. I want to distinguish between iPhone
and iPod Touch
, if possible.
You can use the UIDevice class like this:
NSString *deviceType = [UIDevice currentDevice].model;
if([deviceType isEqualToString:@"iPhone"])
// it's an iPhone
#import <sys/utsname.h>
NSString *iPhone = [self iPhoneVersion];
-(NSString*)iPhoneVersion
{
NSString *platform;
struct utsname systemInfo;
uname(&systemInfo);
platform = [NSString stringWithCString:systemInfo.machine encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone1,1"]) return @"iPhone 1G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone1,2"]) return @"iPhone 3G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone2,1"]) return @"iPhone 3GS";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone3,1"]) return @"iPhone 4";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone3,3"]) return @"VerizoniPhone 4";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone4,1"]) return @"iPhone 4S";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone5,1"]) return @"iPhone 5 (GSM)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone5,2"]) return @"iPhone 5 (GSM+CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone5,3"]) return @"iPhone 5c (GSM)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone5,4"]) return @"iPhone 5c (GSM+CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone6,1"]) return @"iPhone 5s (GSM)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone6,2"]) return @"iPhone 5s (GSM+CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone7,2"]) return @"iPhone 6";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPhone7,1"]) return @"iPhone 6 Plus";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPod1,1"]) return @"iPod Touch 1G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPod2,1"]) return @"iPod Touch 2G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPod3,1"]) return @"iPod Touch 3G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPod4,1"]) return @"iPod Touch 4G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPod5,1"]) return @"iPod Touch 5G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad1,1"]) return @"iPad";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,1"]) return @"iPad 2 (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,2"]) return @"iPad 2 (GSM)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,3"]) return @"iPad 2 (CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,4"]) return @"iPad 2 (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,5"]) return @"iPad Mini (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,6"]) return @"iPad Mini (GSM)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad2,7"]) return @"iPad Mini (GSM+CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad3,1"]) return @"iPad 3 (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad3,2"]) return @"iPad 3 (GSM+CDMA)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad3,3"]) return @"iPad 3 (GSM)";

if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,4"]) return @"iPad Mini 2G (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,5"]) return @"iPad Mini 2G (Cellular)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,6"]) return @"iPad Mini 2G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,7"]) return @"iPad Mini 3 (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,8"]) return @"iPad Mini 3 (Cellular)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad4,9"]) return @"iPad Mini 3 (China)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad5,3"]) return @"iPad Air 2 (WiFi)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"iPad5,4"]) return @"iPad Air 2 (Cellular)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"AppleTV2,1"]) return @"Apple TV 2G";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"AppleTV3,1"]) return @"Apple TV 3";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"AppleTV3,2"]) return @"Apple TV 3 (2013)";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"i386"]) return @"Simulator";
if ([platform isEqualToString:@"x86_64"]) return @"Simulator";
return platform;
}
if([UIDevice currentDevice].userInterfaceIdiom==UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
//Device is ipad
}else{
//Device is iphone
}
- (BOOL)deviceiPhoneOriPod
{
NSString *deviceType = [UIDevice currentDevice].model;
if([deviceType rangeOfString:@"iPhone"].location!=NSNotFound)
return YES;
else
return NO;
}
This is an update for UIDeviceHardware.m
from the answer above.

I use this in my app. Up to date as of December 2012.
