Simple enough for everyday sharing. Powerful enough for professionals.

- Reads UID, tag type, manufacturer, technology and memory capacity
- Decodes every NDEF record, including URLs, text, contacts, Wi-Fi and more
- Acts on scanned data directly: call, email, open links or launch Maps
- Shows writability, lock state and remaining free memory at a glance
