### 1/5 — Info

*2025-03-06*

It does not reflect the bible verse it says it is I have checked many by my bible and all have been wrong so if you don’t know bible this app may not be for you to read what comes up when you scan the bracelet

### 3/5 — Like the app but would love it with a few improvements

*2020-06-26*

Was trying to find an NFC scanner with history this does the job.

Even better it picks up multiple records on a single NFC tag.

I would love to be able to bulk send records picked up in a single scan rather than just each individual record.

Also if possible linking the relevant action to the record type in my case specifically geo/url/uri record types.

This would make this app amazing as I can write geo/ notes/ URLs to a single NFC and have a simple app to log NFCs found, with the ability to easily use the referenced data.

Many thanks for the great effort hopefully some of the suggestions make their way in if possible.
