Die App verwendet nur englisch. Mit einer anderen App konnte ich sofort meinen Ausweis auslesen . Daran hat es nicht gelegen. 2,49€ sind weg und ich werde sie jetzt löschen. ### 1/5 — Löschen ohne bezahlen nicht möglich! *2022-08-19* Leider kann man bei dieser App den Inhalt eines nfc tags nicht ohne zu bezahlen. Somit als kostenlos nfc nicht zu gebrauchen! ### 1/5 — Garbage *2022-04-04, version 2.0.9* Thought paying for it would make it better, but it didn’t! This app is garbage! ### 1/5 — Bypasses user preferences. *2022-04-03, version 2.0.9* After using the app twice I was presented with a page asking to review the app, despite me having “in-app reviews” disabled in Settings. The developer has circumvented the requirement by presenting the ask for review as a view within their app rather than the iOS dialog box. For bypassing App Store policy and user preferences, I am giving the app a one-star review. ### 1/5 — Booooo! *2022-03-04, version 2.0.5* App let me use it once and then told me to pay for it. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Soheil *2021-10-12, version 1.1.17* Got this tool on iOS 14 and paid fully for unlock. Everything was working well. Now After update to iOS 15.02 Cannot do the restore and hangs and must exit. This is on iPhone 7. Please have it fixed. Thanks. ### 1/5 — Meh *2021-09-24, version 1.1.12* Simple to use. A very basic writer. Paid for ability to lock tags however feature does not work. ### 1/5 — Don’t pay for it. *2021-03-17, version 1.0.27* Although this is a nice GUI, even when you’ve paid for it you can only have one item added to the card, you can’t have your YouTube Instagram and email for example, you can only have one at a time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-03-27* No scaning ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2025-07-08, version 2.0.260* Doesn’t work to save even the simplest contact card. ### 1/5 — Direct clone of competing app *2024-12-29, version 2.0.228* This app is named after the two other and older popular NFC apps, Smart NFC and NFC Tools. The user interface is a clone of Smart NFC. It's a shame to see this practice on the App Store. ### 1/5 — Satisfaction Report *2024-12-16, version 2.0.227* I downloaded the App on my iPhone 10 but it did not work to read my card and fob which I wanted to duplicate. I sent an email to the App owner but it hasn’t been answered. The App cost me £1.99 and I can’t find a way to claim a refund. ### 1/5 — Pra mim não funciona *2024-11-28, version 2.0.224* Tenho o iPhone SE2 e a versão paga, testei com várias tags diferentes de diferentes frequências e nada de funcionar… ### 1/5 — Does not work *2024-08-11, version 2.0.208* Why ask for money to unlock features but does not actually work, free or paid? ### 1/5 — Scam and money taken *2024-02-05, version 2.0.181* They said there’s a 3 day trial, but as soon as I’ve confirmed they have charged for the annual subscription. ### 1/5 — Aweful experience *2023-06-10* Installed the app and was immediately prompted to rate the app. This was within seconds of opening the app. Found that basic function required extra money. Also noticed that a send app use daya option was sneakily set as “on” by default. Do not recommend - slimey and sneaky ### 1/5 — Non legge *2023-05-04, version 2.0.117* tag viene letto da Comandi Rapidi ma l’app non lo vede ### 1/5 — Nem tente no iPhone com iOS 16 *2022-12-06, version 2.0.74* Também já havia tentado antes da ultima atualização do iPhone, e nada. Não funciona ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love *2026-04-20, version 2.0.304* It helps my athletes get paid ### 5/5 — العراق *2026-02-28, version 2.0.296* جيدجدا ### 5/5 — Today a updated screenshot *2025-04-11, version 2.0.243* Hello world I don’t k in if there is anyone to receive these feedbacks I leave everywhere however here is a selfish lonely world it’s just nice on the outside I know their public acting faces but on the low they plan constantly and scheme and hurt innocent ones such as myself :~me him I her she it they them us you you you you you and the system keeps glitching .anyhow the real date is actual still paused on the sabbath the Tuesday before the 7th day at 11: pm one hour before the sun rise of the world completion of our all mighty and these 60 minutes could set over 60 years or more 600 or 6000 and so on who knows right we’re all born different eras and dates so it disconnects us really really hard anyway it’s Friday the 11th of April in years 2025 so like 2502 maybe I don’t know anyway peace out ! ~Ze3’M~ 08/16/88” ### 5/5 — Excelente *2024-10-06, version 2.0.216* Excelente ### 5/5 — Ion *2024-04-05, version 2.0.190* Iuh ### 5/5 — Excelente app maravillosa *2023-10-15, version 2.0.160* Funciona genial ### 5/5 — Works fantastic *2023-01-16* Easy to use, works great! ### 5/5 — Molto pratico *2022-04-09, version 2.0.10* Ottimo ### 5/5 — 좋아요 *2021-01-05* Yyy ### 4/5 — Great app easy to use *2025-08-01, version 2.0.263* Love the app and the price is right.
