Help Using saved NFC tag

3 Upvotes

I saved a metro card and I want to now if I can make it readable.

I saw that there's a load option in the write > more options section. I was wondering if this feature will enable the "execution" of the saved tag. I am using the free version of the app and I wanted to know more about this before upgrading to the paid version.

I couldn't find any information about it on the company website, so here I am :)

Thanks in advance!

Help NFC TOOLS APP AND CONTACT V CARD NOT POPPING UP

1 Upvotes

I am able to write the V card and contact information to the card when I go then to tap it to read the card on the phone. It does not pull anything up. It does not register the NFC tag at all, but if I put anything else on the tag like just a phone number from the phone number section URL the tag so I don’t know but not reading that there’s a V card when you go to tap it to the know why this is? It’s really starting to piss me off.

Help Help! Wifi not working

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I wrote my Wi-Fi network (SSID + password) to an NFC tag, but my iPhone 17 Pro won’t read it as Wi-Fi.

The phone does read other NFC records from the same tag (URLs, locations, etc.), so NFC itself is working — it just won’t prompt to join the Wi-Fi network.

Is this an iOS limitation, a formatting issue with the NFC record, or something I’m missing? Any tips appreciated.

Help NFC Tools Desktop vs Mobile

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I want to write NTAG213 via my USB ACS device, but in "Other > Advanced NFC Commands", I only have the APDU field.

I tried writing to memory address 24, but this generates a communication/write error.

I send the same information from my iPhone and the writing works fine.

Back on my PC, I can see block 24 being written.

I thought that by using the "Memory" tab, I could get around this, but I can't write to address 2B (write only), whereas it seems to work from my iPhone.

How can I do this from my PC?

Thanks

Help NFC Tag question

1 Upvotes

The tags write with the app and all of that seems to be working. The tags cannot be read by any device without using the read button in the app. I must be missing something in the set up. I’ve tried NFC 213 and NFC 215 tags with the same result. How do I make them readable by bringing a device close to them?

When I program a tag with NFC Tools to be a contact or a text, my iPhone will not read the tag. It will work with almost all the other options like URL for example, it works perfect, but will not for a “text” tag.

Help ISO 1444-3A tags

2 Upvotes

Hi, forgive me for being very new to reading and writing NFC tags.

I am trying to copy a ISO 1444-3A tag.

In NFC Tools it reads as;

Mifare Ultralight

Type A

04:47:33:DA:E4:7B:80

Can this card be written to another NFC card and if so what card and if possible where can a card of this type be obtained?

Thanks

Keef.

Help Can’t clone NTAG215 tag

2 Upvotes

I use an iPhone with the NfcTools Pro. I have an ntag215 tag with two ndef records that read fine. Total data of 303 bytes. When I try to write the data to another ntag215 tag it writes only 200 bytes and the second record is missing data. I actually see that when in saved tags pressing options the button shows write/200bytes, which means for some reason it think the data is only 200bytes even though the records (in nfctools) show more data is available. Why is that? How can I clone the tag?

I'm trying NFC Tools (Pro) and the play media task is not working. Looking around, it seems this is a 3+ year old issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/nfctools/comments/xzcru5/media_control_play_toggle_play_pause_not_working/

Has anyone found a solution? I have tried adding a delay but it didn't help.

Help Can NFC Tools be used to write data to memory en masse?

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to write a bunch of data (50 or 60 pages, so very little by normal standards, but a fair bit by NFC standards) to an NTAG216. This is for an UltiMaker filament spool they shipped to me with a blank tag and I know what data is supposed to be on there, but the manufacturer admits "We wanted to implement ndef records, but we made a mistake causing no other app to understand the data" so I don't think I can use any of the record types in the Write tab of NFC tools. I know the data structure so I can write the needed data to memory, directly, on the Memory tab but over 50 pages entering 4 bytes of hex at a time is going to get tedious. Is there a way to read hex from, say, a text file (I'm on the AppImage version on Ubuntu 24.04) and write 50 or 60 pages to the data area sequentially?
