Near Filed Communication (NFC) is a technology for storing a small
amount of information in a sticker or other small device, which you can
scan at close range with an NFC reader.

NFC tags can contain URLs, pictures, Maps locations, contacts, and
many other kinds of information.

If your phone has the ability to scan NFC tags, you can use the Tags
application to open, act on, and organize the tags you’ve scanned.

You can also add tags to your phone that you can share with anyone
who has a phone or other device that can scan NFC tags, to quickly
share contact or other information.
