DeviceInfo.Name not working on OS16 #2059

Property DeviceInfo.Name return iPad for device running iOS 16

UIDevice.current.name worked on iOS15, but when is does not on iOS16 it returns 'iPad' all the time.

I'm guessing this is an Apple entitlement issue

UIDevice.name

To access the user-assigned device name through this property in iOS 16 and later, your app must meet certain criteria and be assigned an entitlement. For information, see com.apple.developer.device-information.user-assigned-device-name.

Looks like if you add the right metadata to your iOS app it will still work. Let us know if that is not the case. Thanks for the report!
