UDID safe to give out?

[max2]

Is it safe to give a developer your UDID for a jailbreak tweak ?

Yes
They need it to create a profile so it runs on your device

What about my serial number ? Now they are asking for that.

I'd be asking why they need that. I also wouldn't risk giving it for a jailbreak. There are too many scam artists that promise a jailbreak but instead take your information for illegal purposes.

Not too sure about that
Ask them what they're using it for and visual proof they need to have it

Not saying they don't need it, but I'm 99% sure they don't

How reputable is the guy? What are his other works? Is he known in the community?

Not sure.

He is the one who did iTouchSecure, etc

So should I give out my serial number to the iTouchSecure dev or not please ?

I'd vote no. There has never been a jailbreak I've participated in where they've asked for that. Which phone do you have and which iOS version?

iPhone 6s Plus and iOS 10.2

Licensing works through udid plus serial - otherwise you can just wait until Cydia Store is active but I have no idea when that will be.

Never give.
