I had a couple of questions related to the Fitbit device ID that is returned by the API call to the Devices endpoint.
1. Is that device ID unique across all users?
2. Is that a personally identifying piece of information in any way? In other words, given a device ID, is it possible for someone to figure out to whom the particular device belonged?
I am asking because of a need to encrypt personally identifying information in an application and trying to figure out if this qualifies.
Thanks.

@Jon12345 The device ID is unique to the device. You wouldn't be able to tell who owns the device given a device ID.
