Boreal NFC is an iPhone-first NFC editor for people who need tags to work in the real world. Read a tag, understand its NDEF records, edit common payloads, and write back with clearer validation before you touch another card, sticker, or label. Boreal NFC helps with: - Reading and summarizing NDEF tags - Creating website, text, phone, email, social, review, payment-link, contact-page, and Shortcut payloads - Checking payload size and write readiness before writing - Saving reusable payloads and write history locally - Generating QR fallback images for public sharing - Sharing tag compatibility reports - Writing basic CSV batch rows one physical tag at a time Core reading, creating, single-tag writing, validation, and QR fallback remain available without Pro. Boreal NFC Pro is an optional one-time purchase—no subscription—that unlocks unlimited saved payloads, complete write history, duplicate actions, Batch Writer, CSV reports, and retry tools. Saved payloads, write history, and batch progress stay on this device. The app does not require an account. Boreal NFC does not copy payment cards, transit cards, access cards, hotel keys, secure identity cards, or protected systems. Core NFC behavior depends on your iPhone, iOS version, and physical tag type, so always test tags after writing.
