FAQ
Can I change the link on the tag once one is written to it?
Yes.
You can rewrite the tag as many times as you'd like unless it has been permanently locked.
Does it work on iPhone?
Yes.
Most modern iPhones support NFC.
Does it work on Android?
Yes.
Most Android phones with NFC enabled are supported.
Will this erase the old link?
Yes.
Writing a new URL replaces the previous one.
What if my phone doesn't detect the tag?
1. Try moving the phone slightly closer to the tag. Typically, the NFC antennae is located in the upper half of modern cellphones. Nearing this section to the NFC tag will provide the best results.
2. Some cellphones will not allow a tag to be read until the phones screen is on and the lock screen has been bypassed / unlocked.
