Looking for testers for WebNFC
Hi,
I started working against the upcoming WebNFC API release which is now in origin trial phase for Chrome.
Excited to see what innovation the API will bring for the dev community.
I decided to get the ball rolling and released, probably the first ever public client that allows you to read and write NFC tags from your browser.
If there are some volunteer Android users in the IH community, feel free to give it a shot at https://webnfc.app/
I have the domain registered for the Origin trial, but as I tested the client myself, I still had to enable the flag when running Chrome Beta on Android, to get the tag reading and writing working.
Wish I could help but I don't think I have any NFC tags around :(
Many cards have an NFC tag inside them. Most of them are unwritable though. NFC API also lacks a way to identify a permanently written card, so it is currently hard to tell, if a regular gym card for example is writable or not.
Ah right, I was stuck thinking of the tags you can buy. Just turned it on and successfully scanned a card.
