CENFC is an advanced NFC toolkit for iOS. Scan, identify, dump, and analyze NFC tags — all processed locally on your device with zero data collection. SCANNER Instantly identify NFC tags through ATQA/SAK lookup and protocol probing. Supports ISO 14443, ISO 18092 (FeliCa), and ISO 15693.

Grocery turns your shopping list into a smart, shared shopping assistant. Built for households and roommates who split the shopping, it keeps everyone in sync in real time — and helps you spend less while you're at it. SHARE LISTS IN REAL TIME Create as many lists as you need and invite family or roommates to shop together. Every add, check-off, and edit syncs instantly, so nobody shows up to the store with an outdated list. A live activity feed shows exactly who changed what. SCAN PRICE TAGS, INSTANTLY Point your camera at a price tag and let Grocery read it for you. It recognizes item names, member pricing, discounts, and per-unit pricing right off the shelf — no typing required. Save every scan to your price history so you always know what you paid last time. TRACK YOUR SPENDING Every scan builds a price history with trend charts, so you can see whether that "sale price" is actually a good deal. Browse, search, and compare prices across stores and trips. PRICE & UNIT CALCULATOR Compare two products side by side — per kg, per lb, per liter, per ounce — and instantly see which one is the better value. SMART STORE ROUTES Shop in the most efficient order. Grocery automatically groups your list by store section (produce, dairy, meat, and more), following a built-in warehouse-style layout — or build your own custom route. SPENDING INSIGHTS See your shopping trends over time — what you're buying most, and where your money is going.
