WHAT iOS DOES NOT ALLOW - SAID UP FRONT iOS does not let apps read MIFARE Classic data (only the UID), copy a UID onto another tag, emulate a tag, or join Wi-Fi automatically from a tag. These are system limits that no app gets past. The app includes a page explaining all of them. Requires iOS 18, so an iPhone XR or newer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TVBox at none against NFC Kit's 1. TVBox also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). NFC Kit's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
