Smart NFC at a glance

Smart NFC is a mobile app that reads, writes and rewrites data on NFC tags, cards and chips. People share contact details, links and social profiles with a tap, and program tags to automate repetitive tasks between two devices.

Problem

Why make NFC simple?

Technology only makes work easier when people actually adopt it. Many businesses find modern tools hard to take on and stick with manual work, so they need simple, familiar tools to make the move to digital.

Solution

How we built Smart NFC

We built the app around something people already understand: tapping a card. Smart NFC reads, writes and programs tasks on compatible NFC tags and chips, so going digital feels familiar from the first tap.

Questions about this project

Quick answers about Smart NFC.

What is the Smart NFC app?

A mobile app for working with NFC tags. You can read, write and manage data on NFC cards and chips, share contact details and social profiles without contact, and program tags to automate repetitive tasks.

Can a phone app write data to NFC tags?

Yes. With Smart NFC, an NFC-enabled phone writes data to a compatible tag or card, rewrites it later and reads it back. Other NFC devices, such as modern phones, can read the same tag.

What tasks can you automate with NFC tags?

Program a task onto an NFC card, and a tap connects two devices and runs steps you would otherwise repeat by hand. Tags can also hold a location, links, social profiles or a phone number.
