1. Does phone have to be rooted?Works great as long as you know your binsI put my info and it keep say invalid I need some helpThese will not open!!Won't even open not even worth a 1 star ..at least let that app start then crashIn a world where Android Pay is constrained by the new SafetyNet API, I see a big void in the rooted and custom ROM community for the ability to pay by NFC, and you have filled that void for me!Works great on rooted Motorola Droid Turbo with a new Chase Amazon VISA containing a smart chip.
2. Would it be possible to add in a manual override to force the magnet part to transmit?Is this app going to work with a VISA card that has a stripe AND a chip + PIN? I remember trying to swipe my card multiple times at a store and they would always tell me I had to use the chip instead.
3. Also, is there any way to generate/extract the magstripe data from the card number and the three number on the back? That would save me from buying a $20 magstripe reader I would only use once or twice.Keeps force closing won't let me open!!!!Nothing but declines.
4. I used a $15 Yasoo brand mag stripe reader to collect the card data into MS Word on my PC, sent that text to my phone, and pasted it into SwipeYours.
5. This is fantastic! I am very grateful that this author published this app as an excellent work around for the lack of Android Pay support on rooted handsets.
6. It appears that this app requires that nfc be present to trigger it sending the card info.
7. Works great.
8. I notice that Samsung's built in app works on terminals without nfc though.
9. Now I simply hold my phone to any NFC enabled terminal to pay.
10. I look forward to a UI update, but the app is still great as is.
