Here is what has changed in Version 3! • Pro feature: Password protection for NFC tags. Set, remove, and manage tag passwords directly in the app. • Pro feature: Import tag contents into the editor. Pull NDEF records from a real tag and edit them in-app. • Reader improvements: Read outloud text tags now automatically start speaking once scanned in multiscan mode. This allows one to check multiple tags at once for accessibility. • Tag Info: You can now scan a tag and view it's raw info such as the bytes and type of tag! • Writer and layout polish: Cleaner button layout, smoother write animations, and password controls moved to a much better spot. • Small improvements: Added UTF-8/16 support for text tags, removed duplicate and obsolete options, and cleaned up various UI hiccups. A tiny note • Password protection and tag import are available in Pro mode. Thanks for using Simply NFC. If you run into bugs, weird behavior, or have feature ideas, let us know and we will chase it down.
