What is a NFC Tag

And How To Use It

NFC, or Near Field Communication, is a way for devices to talk to each other wirelessly when they are very close to each other. Think of it like a special kind of handshake that happens when you bring your phone close to another device or a small tag.

This can be used for things like paying for things with your phone, unlocking doors or exchanging information like contact details. It's very easy to use, and you don't need to connect any cables or do anything fancy, you just need to bring your device close to the other one and they will talk to each other.

How it Works?

A cellphone can read a NFC tag by bringing it close to the tag, usually within a few centimeters. The phone has a special chip inside called NFC that can communicate with the tag and read the information stored on it.

It works like this: you can have a small tag, it can be in the form of a sticker or a card, that contains information, like a website address or a phone number.

If you have an NFC enabled phone, you can just bring it close to the tag and it will automatically read the information from the tag and do something with it, like opening a webpage or making a call. It's as simple as that.

Smartphones with NFC

Sadly not every smartphone has NFC built-in. It depends on the manufacturer and the model of the smartphone. While many modern smartphones do have NFC, some older models or budget devices may not include it.

For example in the past, some lower end models of some of the brands do not have NFC, but this trend is changing over the time and almost every new smartphone models have it. Therefore, it's a good idea to check the specifications of a smartphone to see if it has NFC or not.
