iOS Shortcuts Starter Kit for iPhone 7 and higher versions
With the NFC Starter Kit, iPhone Xs and Xr and iOS13 shortcuts can be accessed via NFC tags. The in-house Apple iOS App shortcuts offer various automation options that can be executed directly via the respective NFC chip. These include, for example, the automatic playback of a playlist, the automatic start of different apps, device settings such as Wifi / Bluetooth activate/ deactivate or home automation and much more.
General functionality:
The respective NFC chip is scanned and named (compatible with iPhone Xs, Xr, 11, 11 Pro). This NFC chip can then be assigned various functions. The functions are stored in the iPhone and can only be accessed using the unique NFC tags. Means that new functions can be configured in the iPhone without rewrite the respective NFC chip again. For older iPhone models we have this Starter Kit.
