NFC Tool — Read & Write NFC Tags NFC Tool is a fast, simple, and reliable way to interact with NFC tags from your iPhone. Read, write, and explore — everything is just a tap away. Requires an iPhone with NFC (iPhone 7 or later). iPad and Mac have no NFC hardware, so they can't scan tags. WHAT YOU CAN DO Read NFC tags with a single tap: stickers, cards, keychains, and other NDEF tags such as NTAG and MIFARE Ultralight. Identify the chip type, view raw payloads, and inspect every record on the tag. Write rich content to your tags: • Website links (URL) • Plain text and notes • Contact cards (vCard) • Wi-Fi credentials for instant connection • Phone numbers • Email addresses Bookmark scans, search history, and export to CSV or text whenever you need. PRO TOOLS Unlock advanced features with NFC Tool Pro: • Erase, format, and lock tags • Copy the data from one tag to another • Batch write multiple tags • Password-protect NTAG213/215/216 tags • Read full memory dumps (page-by-page hex) • Send raw NFC commands • Ad-free experience WHAT IT CAN'T DO Bank cards, transit cards, ID cards, and secured access badges are encrypted. NFC Tool can't read their contents or copy them. MIFARE Classic tags can't be read on iPhone. YOUR DATA Your scans, history, and tag data are stored on your device. NFC Tool uses third-party services for ads (Google AdMob), analytics and crash reports (Firebase), and subscriptions (RevenueCat). If you send feedback, your message, email address, and any screenshot you attach are sent to us. See the Privacy Policy for details. 70+ LANGUAGES Fully localized in more than 70 languages, with RTL support for Arabic, Persian, Hebrew, and Urdu.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: i at none against NFC Tool's 2. i also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
