Cross-platform discovery of device name and user name?

[Lars Fosdal 1792]

Does anyone know if there are existing libs out there that can extract this across all FMX platforms?

- Current user

- Device name

Hmmm, user of what? On 99% of mobile devices there is only one user. Some may allow a multi user environment, but those are exotic to say the least.

 

As for the device name, maybe this works on all platforms:

The DW.OSDevice.xxx units here have implementations for GetDeviceName for iOS, Android, macOS, Windows and Linux:

I could add something like GetUserName - which would likely return blank for iOS and Android

3. Retrieve a built-in account from AccountManager

 

Would this be usable to get some sort of username / identity?

 

Perhaps there is something similar on iOS as well?
