NFC21 Tools 1.6

We appreciate NFC technology, which led us to create the NFC21 Tools. Our application provides a comprehensive yet user-friendly toolkit for exploring NFC capabilities on your iPhone. It supports both reading and writing NFC tags, all presented within an attractive user interface.

Upon launching NFC21 Tools, users are welcomed with a history view displaying all NFC tags that have been read or written. Various filters allow for easy categorization by 'Read,' 'Written,' 'Drafts,' or 'Favorites' status. Tapping on an entry reveals details such as the tag's serial number (UID), memory size, write lock status, and stored content. Actions related to the content, such as opening a link in Safari or importing v-cards into the Contacts app, are also available.

Creating custom NFC tags begins with selecting a type, categorized into three options. The standard type generates NFC tags readable by newer iPhone models (iPhone XS, XR or newer) without requiring an additional app. Extended types offer more advanced functionalities like sharing locations, contacts, or WIFI credentials and necessitate compatible apps such as NFC21 Tools or NFC21 Reader to interpret the stored content. Lastly, the expert type allows users to define custom data types that require tailored apps for utilization.

To summarize, NFC21 Tools supports the following tag types:

• Standard (usable without an app with iPhone XS, XR or newer):
  • URL
  • Phone number
  • E-Mail
  • SMS
  • FaceTime
  • Shortcut
• Advanced (with App):
  • Text
  • Address
  • Position
  • Contact
  • WiFi
• Expert:
  • Data
  • Bluetooth

Recommended NFC-Tag types: NXP NTAG 203, 213, 215, 216
