  • Doesn’t work

    Every card I try to write doesn’t scan. I’ve used the same card with a different app and it works perfectly.

    Developer Response

    What contents are on your card, and is it NDEF encoded? Do you know what type of card it is? I'd love to help you resolve your issue.
  • Deep linking feature is amazing

    The ability to create smartnfc:// links with pre-populated data is a game changer for situations where you have to write many tags. It’s the only NFC app I know that has this feature. Bravo!
  • Meh, lackluster.

    One star for pestering users for reviews.

    Hi _milksteak_, It's unfortunate you feel this way, but reviews are an important part of any app's success. Smart NFC is careful about how it requests reviews, and should only do so after a user has had a chance to *really* try out the app. Happy tagging, Alec
  • Solid, but missing function to add contact

    Please add function so I can add contact….
  • Does not work

    I tried scanning a tag and was impressed with the reviews and purchased the app but it doesn’t work. I’m using an iPhone 12 pro
  • It crashes when I try to change protocols

    I’m having trouble writing to Type 5 tags because the app crashes when I use the advanced mode and change protocols.

    I'd love to resolve this issue. Would you reach out to me on Twitter at @0xA1EC?
  • Full Featured NFC App

    This is the best NFC app that I could find for iPhone when tinkering with some pesky NFC tags. Unfortunately my tags were password protected, and the only advanced option for my tag type was to remove the password. Overall, still a great app.

    Developer Response

    I love hearing that people are enjoying my app! Passwords are tricky, and commands can be combines with the password validation command, but 99% of the time it's easier to remove and re-add the password. Otherwise you'll have to send all the commands manually, and trust me, that's not pretty 😅
  • Great App

    Been using this to read and write NDEF tags and it works great. Very responsive dev too. Thanks!

    Developer Response

    I'm glad you're enjoying the app! Let me know if you end up upgrading to newer phone, that background tag reading is super cool!
  • Doesn’t work

    Like other comments, this specific app didn’t work (even though my phone and my cards are in the supported list), and other apps didn’t. I really wanted it to work because this one I actually paid for. I merely tried to read a card and no luck.

    Developer Response

    Hey, I'd love to help figure out why it didn't work for you! You may have to format the tag using the Advanced section as some new tags don't come NDEF-formatted from factory. Few other apps can do this, but I frequently test Smart NFC to ensure the functionality is there. Please reach out if this doesn't solve it for you! Also apologize for not seeing your review further. Feel free to ping via Twitter @0xA1EC where I may be quicker to provide support.
  • Does not read tag

    Other readers on phone work with tag but not this one. ISO 15693 (type v). Hopefully fix is avail.
