About NFC TagWriter by NXP

1. Next to the creation and storing of NFC data sets the NFC TagWriter by NXP also allows to automatically launching applications based on the data read from NFC-enabled tags and items containing NFC-enabled electronics.

2. The NFC TagWriter by NXP stores contacts, bookmarks, geo location, Bluetooth Handover, SMS, Mail, text messages and many more to any NFC-enabled tags as well as to items like posters, business cards, watches and many more containing NFC-enabled electronics.

3. Once data has been stored the application allows also reading and viewing the programmed data including options to launch applications automatically based on the contained data.

4. This includes a whole range of NXP and third party NFC-enabled contactless IC products like MIFARE Ultralight, MIFARE Classic, MIFARE DESFire, NTAG 21x, NTAG I2C, ICODE SLI & many others.

5. TagWriter supports any NDEF pre-formatted tags for all NDEF operations but formating to NDEF feature is limited only to NXP Tags.

6. NOTE: Installing TagWriter on a non-NFC enabled phone is enabled now but it does of course not allow you to actually program tags.

7. We will continue our efforts to add new features for your benefits and we work hard to provide a feature rich application ahead of other apps available in the market.

8. Anyhow, you can now prepare NFC data sets e. g. on a large screen device and then share them with an NFC enabled handset to actually make use of them.

9. It supports a series of configuration options adapting the application to your own needs and preferences.

10. Please help us to improve and provide “crash report” and/or contact us via nfcapp. support@nxp. com.

11. The application fully supports the NFC Forum Type 1 Tag, Type 2 Tag, Type 3 Tag as well as Type 4 Tag portfolio.

NFC TagWriter Customer Insights

1. Any ideas?This app, unlike the others lets you enter the Bluetooth device name, so it shows up when connecting, instead of "connecting to..."It's decent, but there is no documentation for setting up counters using CSV files for NTAG 215 - and when I try to restore a twdb backup, it doesn't include counter information as it should.

2. Now can't write to them any more and can't remove password (asks me to put in 8 characters minimum)! At least tell people that they have to convert their old ASCII passwords to hex values, or give us the option to specify which we want to enter!Simple and awesome.Has major bugs in the uid and counter mirror with URLs.

3. Has it been tested? One star till fixed :-( Latest update has not fixed the interaction counter issue.Very handy and comprehensive NFC writer, however the QR scanner (to copy URLs) no longer works.

4. I'm unable to therefore generate bulk records that include counter information.When I began using this app the variable name for the mirrored unique ID was the letter m.

5. Simply incredible.Works fine, but every time a scan and write a QR code, the nfc goes blank and nothing can read it anymore.

6. I can't even scan them to erase the content added by the first tap.A good app but some issues with Business Cards.

7. So four stars.Used this to write password protected tags (with 4 character password).

8. This has been replaced by uid thereby making all my previously written interactive web content obsolete.

9. This app claims it has been written, but no tag can be read after the initial tap.

10. This is amateur night and betrays a lack of understanding of how HTTP works.

11. You can only select an existing contact which is not much use if you want to produce a new one with your own details.
