ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NFC holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NFC has 95 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of NFC Reader And Writer's written reviews are positive against 59% of NFC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

NFC Reader And Writer ships an update every 3 weeks, NFC fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
