⚠️ Notes & compatibility
Works only on NFC-enabled Android devices that support HCE (Host Card Emulation).
Some NFC readers/readers or older devices may not support all tag types or may have limitations.
Not all NFC tag standards (e.g., certain MIFARE classic secure tags) can be fully emulated by phone hardware.
Always test with your reader/target device to ensure compatibility.

I had an NFC tag that I use everyday, but I forgot it in the office when we started working from home. This app was a life saver.
Can't scan to emulate. Was hoping to scan my existing NFC tags to emulate, this app you have to manually enter the data. 3 star because it appears to do that ok.
I was hoping to be able to load up some .bin files on my phone to emulate... I wish there were some sort of instructions because I'm not that savvy in this area and the app is sort of useless to me otherwise. The settings don't clarify anything. Yeah yeah reply all you want with your website but it doesn't TELL me anything. A lot of room for improvement.
To be honest I purchased a few features. I have not gotten a single successful service use so far. Application is not easily understood. I may not know how to use it. From my perspective it simply doesn't work and was well written enough of an application to convince me its worth investing in either waY. Step it up devs
