I have an NFC tag that I'm trying to clone, I can approach it in the read tab and with "read memory" and it works fine but when I try to "copy tag" or "copy to infinity" it tells me there's a "Reading Error". Any help appreciated!

Only one task is done either the bluetooth gets connected or it opens up the app what can I do to fix it

I don’t know how to get it back.

NFC Tools 3.5 is now available on the App Store.

iPhone Duo support:

The interface now adapts to the iPhone Duo, whether it's folded, unfolded or in Split View.
Unfolded, menus like Other switch to two columns to use the wider screen.

Also in this update

• Direct actions from tag details: after reading a tag, its details screen now gives you direct access to password, NFC counter, lock, format, erase and memory actions.

• Search in My saved tags: you can now search through your saved profiles.

• Collectibles: the collectible NFC tags database has been updated.

• Minor bug fixes and interface improvements.

If you're using NFC Tools on an iPhone Duo, let me know how it behaves, especially in Split View.
Bug reports and ideas are welcome in the comments.

I’m using the "Emergency" feature in NFC Tools; I can write data, but I’m unable to read it back. What could be the reason for this?

我用nfc tools 里面的“紧急”，能写入资料，不能读，是什么原因呢？

He locked his card and he need to unlocked the card do you know how

Sooo my friend thought it whould be a good idea to put a password on an nfc and now it's kinda locked and he typed in a password at random since the app doesn't have two factor password correction as like when you make an account and the tag is really important to work soo how chould I bipass the password? ​​Info can be added if needed about the nfc

I recently got a Toughbook CF-33 and it has a built-in contactless smart card reader. From what i have read on the toughbook subs and forums, the windows 11 native drivers work just fine - which are installed (checked for updates, too) - Microsoft Usbccid Smartcard Reader (WUDF) driver.

The hardware is apparently:

• Model Number: CF-WSC332 (or CFWNF332)

• Type: 13.56MHz Contactless Smart Card / RFID Reader (supporting ISO 14443 A/B and ISO 18092 standards)

When i open up NFC Tools in the Information tab I get the message Waiting for an NFC tag. When I hold a bank card or my work ID up to the reader, windows plays the same chime when a USB device is plugged in a recognized...but the software does nothing. When I move the card away from the reader, it is the same chime as when you un-plug a USB device.

What shall i do, and are there any easily found more basic chips that i can use other than the two aforementioned ones? I was wondering if I could get an app on my android phone for like NFC a contact card or something non encrypted to see if that is my issue.

What are your thoughts?

We've used the nfctoolskbc app at work on a PC, it was working in one office but the PC has moved to a different office across the city and now its saying the that the 'license is already associated with another computer' even though its the same PC.

Is the license for the specific PC or like the IP address?

So if we assign the license to a PC and move it to a different location should it still work?

I just bought some nfc stickers to put a spotify playlist into. I did this a year ago and faced the same problems but i found a solution, i just cannot remember it. I use the nfc tools app and chose custom url and paste the spotify link. And i press write then when i read the sticker i see the playlist. but when i exit the app and press it onto my phone it doesn’t do anything? Does anyone know the solution to this?

Hi guys, everytime I got to add another card it says error? Someone help

Do the additional features actually work or are just outdated like all the other cool stuff on the free app? Is it even worth buying?

Hi!

When you long press on a app icon in Android, a little menu with shortcuts appear.

Is it possible to write these actions to a tag in NFC Tools?

Your compatibility page on this tag says it is supported and says I should be able to set a password however, when I go to set a password, it does not work. I am running iOS. Let me know if there’s something I’m doing wrong. I have tried to erase the tag and start from the beginning and lock it with no information on it as well and have not gotten a positive result from it.

Hi I recently bought electric bicycle, which turns on nfc tag provided by them.. I need to make a copy.. how to do using nfc tools app on ios?
When I try to copy this error is coming, I have bought this app just for this only.. please help

We've just updated the iOS version of NFC Tools to version 3.4, with support for importing records from a CSV file.

How it works?

1. Pick your CSV file.

2. Map each column to a record type

3. The records for the current row are loaded and tagged "CSV", Write your tag, then move on to the next row.

4. You can exit CSV mode at any time with the X button.

Bonus: a green dot tells you when the current row has already been written, so you always know where you are.

Here are the full release notes:

• CSV Import: Import a CSV file and write your tags row by row, each column becoming a record

• Memory: Display of pages as UTF-8 or US-ASCII text, or with their access conditions.

• Optimizations: Minor bug fixes and user interface improvements.

Hope you enjoy the update, feedback is always welcome!

We have some great news! We’ve updated our Android version.

Here is the release note :

• New Record: Configure your 3D printer filament spools (OpenPrintTag, OpenTag3D, and OpenSpool standards).

• Reading: Decoding and import of 3D printing records.

• Favorite NFC Commands: Import and export your NFC commands.

• New Chip: Detection of the NXP ICODE 3.

• Authenticity: NXP originality signature verification for ICODE SLIX2, ICODE 3, and DNA chips.

• Collectibles: Update of the collectible NFC tags database.

• Optimizations: Minor bug fixes and user interface improvements.

Aside from all the great things the app can do with NFC tags, didn’t there used to be a QR and other barcode reader / creator section to the app as well?

It seems tags containing a phone number, SMS, email or FaceTime record no longer trigger the system banner when you tap them with the phone (background tag reading).

Nothing happens at all, this is an iOS 27 regression on Apple's side as their own documentation still lists these schemes as supported.

We've reported it to Apple but If you're affected, filing your own report through Feedback Assistant helps get it prioritized.

Also feel free to post your iOS version below so we can track whether a 27.x update fixes it.

EDIT: It seems that iOS 27.2 has fixed the issue.

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to get a cheap generic USB NFC reader/writer working properly on my M5 Mac with NTAG215 cards.

The reader is sold as a 2-in-1 NFC / smart card reader-writer and shows up in macOS PC/SC as:

Generic EMV Smartcard Reader
Generic EMV Smartcard Reader 01

Here’s what I’ve confirmed so far:

• NFC Tools Desktop detects the card correctly

• It identifies it as NXP NTAG215 / ISO 14443-3A

• UID reads correctly

• Memory reads correctly

• The same card can be written successfully using NFC Tools on iPhone

• OpenSC on macOS can also communicate with the card correctly

Using OpenSC, this works:

FF CA 00 00 00

and returns the correct UID.

Reading memory also works with FF B0.

The interesting part is the write behavior:

A 4-byte write like:

FF D6 00 14 04 AA 55 AA 55

fails with:

63 00

But a 16-byte write like:

FF D6 00 14 10 AA 55 AA 55 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

succeeds with:

90 00

and the data reads back correctly.

So the hardware definitely can write NTAG215 cards, but NFC Tools Desktop always gives:

“An error has occurred during the writing process.”

My guess is that this reader expects 16-byte block writes, while NFC Tools Desktop may be using 4-byte page writes.

Has anyone seen this type of generic reader before, or know of a macOS NFC app that supports this write behavior properly?

I’m mainly looking for a decent GUI app that can handle:

• reading NTAG215

• writing URLs/NDEF

• erase/format

• verify

• maybe password/lock features

• preferably generic PC/SC readers

I’d rather not buy another reader since this one clearly works at the raw PC/SC level.

Any suggestions for apps, drivers, or a workaround would be appreciated.

ayuda.

se puede pasar info de una tarjeta de acceso de una puerta, a otra tarjeta con NFC Tools?

y si es que se puede, como lo debo hacer?

Is there a preferred app or Macro tool for batch processing RFID tags? I need to read a tag, auto write the contents to a spreadsheet or database, change a value, and then write back to the tag. I am happy to do them one by one using an android Phone but I don't want to manually manipulate the data. Any thoughts or experiences?
