No review, but apparently "uniquify" is more widely accepted than
"uniqueify".  No dictionary lists either words AFAICS, except that
Wiktionary lists the former:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/uniquify
but apparently adjectives ending in "-e" are prone to lose it when a
verb is formed from them with "-ify", such as

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/falsify
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/intensify
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/simplify

There aren't many though.  Most in this list don't end in -e:
