This article describes the different device-level properties captured when using the Braze iOS Swift SDK.

Device properties

By default, Braze will collect the following device-level properties to allow device, language, and time zone-based message personalization:

Device Carrier (see note on the CTCarrier deprecation)
Device Locale
Device Model
Device OS Version
Push Authorization Status
Push Display Options
Push Enabled
Device Resolution
Device Time Zone

note:

The Braze SDK does not collect IDFA automatically. Apps may optionally pass IDFA to Braze by implementing the methods directly below. Apps must obtain explicit opt-in to tracking by the end user through the App Tracking Transparency framework before passing IDFA to Braze.

To set the advertising tracking state, use set(adTrackingEnabled:).
To set the identifier for advertiser (IDFA), use set(identifierForAdvertiser:).

Configurable device fields are defined in the Braze.Configuration.DeviceProperty enum. To disable or specify the device field you’d like to allowlist, add the fields to the devicePropertyAllowList property of the configuration object.

For example, to specify time zone and locale collection to be allowlisted, set:

swift
objective-c

configuration.devicePropertyAllowList = [.timeZone, .locale]

configuration.devicePropertyAllowList = @[
    BRZDeviceProperty.timeZone,
    BRZDeviceProperty.locale
];

By default, all fields are enabled. Note that without some properties, not all features will function properly. For instance, local time zone delivery will not function without the time zone.
