NFC
Use Near Field Communication (NFC) to share data with other devices, such as videos,
photos, web page addresses, music files, or contacts. You can also use NFC to scan
tags that give you more information about a product or service as well as tags that
activate certain functions on your device.
NFC is a wireless technology with a maximum range of one centimeter, so the devices
sharing data must be held close to each other. Before you can use NFC, you must first
turn on the NFC function, and the screen of your device must be active.
The NFC detection area is located on the back of the device. Hold your device close to
another device or an NFC reader so the NFC detection areas touch each other.
NFC may not be available in all countries or regions. Using certain apps, some NFC functions
can be enabled even when the device is switched off. Note that not all devices support this
feature.
