coconutID
coconutID is a lightweight utility that reveals manufacturing information about your Mac or iPhone, including the factory location and production date encoded in your device's serial number. It's designed for users curious about their hardware's origins, useful for those verifying device authenticity, researching hardware history, or simply satisfying technical curiosity. The app reads serial number data and cross-references it with Apple's manufacturing records to provide this information at a glance.

1 suggestioncoconutID version 3.4 (the latest available) remains Intel-only and Rosetta 2-dependent on Apple Silicon Macs. The developer appears to have made no public announcements about a native Apple Silicon version. The app is not actively maintained with recent updates — your last option is to contact the developer directly at https://www.coconut-flavour.com/coconutid/ to inquire about native Apple Silicon support. If the developer confirms no plans for an update, consider using the **System Information** app (built into macOS) or **Mactracker** (a more actively maintained third-party alternative) to access similar hardware details, though these tools provide broader system information rather than focusing solely on manufacturing date.
