Description
NFC Tools can read and write NFC tags.
NFC Tools can read and write your NFC tags with a simple and lightweight user interface.
By passing your device near an NFC chip, you can read the data it contains and interact with the content.
The "Read" section allows you to see data such as:
- the maker of the tag
- the type of tag (ex : Mifare Ultralight, NTAG213)
- the norm of the tag (ex : NFC Forum Type 2)
- the available technology (ex: NFC A)
- its serial number (ex : 04:85:c8:5a:40:2b:80)
- the size of the tag and of the data on it
- if you can write on the tag
- all the data on the tag (NDEF format)
NFC Tools can record standard information on your tags which will be compatible with any NFC device.
For instance, you can store a VCARD to share your contact details easily, open an URL, share a phone number or even a geolocation.
The "Write" section let you record standardised data such as:
- a simple text
- a link to a website
- an email
- a contact
- a phone number
- a predefined text message
- an address or geolocation
- a WiFi or Bluetooth configuration
- personalised data
- and more...
The write function allows you to add as much data as you wish.
This way you can record large quantities of information on your tag.
The app also allows you to save the contents of your chip for later access.
NFC Tools has been tested with the following NFC tags:
- NTAG 203, 210, 210u, 212, 213, 213TT, 215, 216, 413 DNA, 424 DNA

Ratings and Reviews
good
It’s a good app, it works as advertised.
One tiny issue is when you choose to upload a file you have to write the file path, which is hard to find on iPhone and a good improvement would be to navigate an interface to select a file.
The Best RFID App out there for IPhones
I have been working in the RFID industry for approx 20 years. I have been waiting for the IOS13 update to use NFC on the iPhone for reading and writing to tags. I was searching and testing the best app to use. Well, I’m so please to say this app has pretty much everything you require to do that. It will Write to the tags enabling the NFC tag to you to open a weblink when you scan the tag, send a text message, etc, etc.. the other feature I love is it actually shows you the UID number of the tag which they call the serial number (I like this) the Serial number is the chip ID which is always unique to every tag and the app shows this in HEX format, readers display this in different formats but this is the true value and can easily be converted using programs on the internet to Decimal etc. I can totally recommend this to anyone testing NFC tags with there iPhone, try this you will be amazed at this extra function on the iPhone, you can do lots of practical things with it to make your life easier, I generally use it for businesses but with the new IOS13 update a lot of private individuals will also be using it. Well done to the app developers 5* in my opinion.
Developer Response ,
Thanks a lot for your feedback :)
Best NFC toolkit app
I normally don’t write reviews for apps, but felt this time was well deserved and decided to make an exception.
This app is simply the best, your search for an NFC reader/writer can stop here!
The basic version allows you to do everything, reading, writing and configure your tags such as set a password, format, etc...the pro version few additional things like copy a tag to another.
I’ve personally decided to pay for the pro version only to support the developers as this apps is really well done.
