Use of the name getter of the UIDevice class requires the host app to be assigned with a corresponding entitlement (when running on iOS 16.0+) otherwise it returns the generic string "iPhone", are we going to instruct developers to do so in order to use this API?

I don't think we should instruct developers to add a corresponding entitlement to use the API since it defaults to a generic device name, example "iPhone"
We could add a callout saying by default
- iOS 15 and earlier: name configured on device "Bob's iPhone X" (iPhone settings>General>About>Name)
- iOS 16 and later: a generic device name "iPhone"/"iPad". Optionally an entitlement is required to get actual device name
