Magic NFC
Read full descriptionHide full description
Magic NFC is a utility app designed specifically for magicians who work with NFC tags, URLs, App Clips, Shortcuts, Universal Links, and integrations between magic apps. Most NFC workflows used in magic rely on a fixed URL that redirects through an online server. While this makes it easy to change destinations without rewriting the tag, it also introduces extra steps: Safari opens first, some destinations require additional confirmation, and everything depends on a third-party server being available. Magic NFC takes a different approach. Writing an NFC tag is so fast that, in many situations, simply rewriting the tag becomes the fastest and most reliable solution. Tap an item, scan the tag, and you’re done. Beyond writing NFC tags, Magic NFC also serves as a central hub for the URLs you use in your performances. Create multiple lists to organize App Clips, Shortcuts, Universal Links, reveal pages, API endpoints, web apps, and any other links you use as part of your workflow. Each item can be configured with a default action: • Write to an NFC tag • Open the URL • Copy the URL • Always Ask This allows Magic NFC to function both as an ultra-fast NFC writing tool and as an organized repository for the links that power your performances. The app is deeply integrated with iOS: • Every item is indexed by Spotlight, making your links instantly searchable anywhere on your iPhone. • Magic NFC also includes Shortcuts actions, allowing you to retrieve saved URLs, build automations, and integrate different magic apps without manually copying and pasting links. Whether you’re preparing NFC tags for App Clips, organizing reveal URLs, or managing APIs between multiple magic apps, Magic NFC helps keep everything in one place and always within reach. Designed by a magician for magicians, Magic NFC focuses on reducing friction so you can spend less time preparing technology and more time performing.
