[Q] NFC tag bulk writer

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone knows of an NFC tag writer that can write tags in bulk? Im needing 250-500 identical tags written very quickly and the Task Launcher can only do one tag at a time.
Had a look around but the tag writers I've seen online only seem to do one at a time.
Any help I'd be grateful!

same problem
Hi, did you find any solution?
I have the same problem.
Tnx

GoToTags Encoder
Hey.
Check out the GoToTags Encoder. It's great for encoding lots of tags with the same data or different data. There is a trial that you can download from the website.

Nfc bulk writer
Hello,
If you need to write tags in Bulk you can try "NFC Bulk Writer" on Play store (I can't post the link).
You can also write different tags. You only have to import the csv with the list of tags to write. :good:

Copying NFC tags?

Is there some way to copy one RFID NFC tag to another blank NFC tag with the SGS3?. I have 2 active NFC tags that I would like to mess around with and see if I can actually copy them and get the same access as my authentic ones offers.
So down to the question. Is it possible to copy the entire contents of an NFC chip and write it to another one with an app, and in that case which one?

bump* I'd like to know as well

copy a tag
"NFC Smart Q supports reading or copying a tag"
I just read this, didn't use this app.
There must be more nfc apps in Google's android shop, doing this trick.
I cannot post links, i'm sure you will find it.

Depends. If it's a tag without any protection, yes.
If it's a tag with crypto, such as most RFID door entry systems, contactless credit cards, subway cards - no, they're intentionally designed to prevent such things. (Specific systems may have been hacked, but in general, these are not copyable.)

"Not protected" means I can edit them as I want right??
So if I can solve the encryption manually than I can change my info on my NFC card with the help of my cellphone.
Is that right??

Agreed - may not work for everything, but definitely one of the better tag cloning apps.

Hello,
I am new at nfc so please do not judge me
I have one question:
It is possible to write dokumrent path in nfc tags for example:URL.
but on the path will be security level as:
login
pasword
And after you type your login and password it is automatically opened your dokument.
I was tried to write this way, but after I type login and password the link is not active longer and I have to search manually the document in my data base.
Waiiting fot you answers
For any information I would be thankfull.
P.S. It is possible to do this with my samsung galaxy s3?

[Q] Is this possible using nfc?

First off I'm new to NFC tags and programming them. I was wandering if it would be possible to program a nfc tag in a manner that when I swipe it it would record the following things:
First swipe=current time, date and the address of the location the tag is at.(I would like to have the actual address of the location, not the geolocation)
Second swipe= current time date.
Basicly it would be a time in and time out, if I understand right I would basicly have to create a switch.
I would like it to send the information to either a calander of perferably a spread sheet.
Is something like this possible, and any idea what size nfc tag I may need.
Thank you in advance for any help,
Sean

That's not REALLY an NFC question, because basically like you said the NFC part is just - "Can you make an NFC Switch/Toggle tag?" The answer to that is yes, with the right NFC App. I recommend NFC Smart Q.
The stuff you want to do is about having an app do all that - probably Tasker would be best. Date, Time, and Geolocation I'm sure it can do. But specific address... not so sure about that.
Anyway, with the Tasker URL Launcher plugin app from the play store you can use a URL to launch a task. So you'd create two task - one to do the date, time, location and a second to do date/time. Then using NFC Smart Q you create a switch tag - have the first command be the URL to launch the first Tasker Task and the second to launch the second.
You'd have to ask in a Tasker forum about being able to get exact address, but my guess is it can provide geolocation only...

there is more than enough SPACE in the tags themselves to store the address just write it into the tag. the trick would be recording the time/date and linking it to the stored address.

Getting started with NFC?

I would like to get started with using NFC, but before I go out and buy a load of stuff I would like to ask a few questions. First off, do I need a NFC writer if I have my phone? Also, when looking for some stickers I noticed that some of them were already encoded. What does this mean for developing with them? Should I buy non-encoded ones (if possible)?
If there's anything else you think I should know before I get started with NFC, please let me know. Thanks a lot!

Usually I don't bumb but I really want to know more about this. Thanks!

1. There are loads of applications that can write on NFC tags. So yes, you can use your phone to write tags.
2. The tags can be marked or made read-only. Those that are made read-only cannot be changed at all. Usually tags that are already written (those that you can find on the back of posters) are made read-only. Tags that you buy online that not locked.
There are firms that can provide you with samples.

[Q] NFC Permanent LOCK

Hi,
I am about to develop a mobile apps check -in event using NFC tags.
One of the problem we encounter is about the permanent lock.
We had try the factory reset feature by using Tag Writer application, then apply permanent lock feature on the tag.
As far that we know; once permanent lock is applied, the tag cannot be unlock or even become factory reset.
Why is it that particular tag with permanent lock still can be write with new action and even be cloned?
What is the function of permanent lock on this tags? Can it protect the written data?
May I know what is the constraint of using NFC tags?
Please respond to this, since i am NFC rookie..
Best Regard, Thank You

ummm
if youre asking WHY they have perm write protect on some tags, its because they dont want people rewriting public nfc tags with garbage do they ?
I read somewhere that it actually burns out a track to the writable area, which is why you cant reverse it. but if your app is just for checking in, why are you write locking tags ?

Thank for the heads Up..:good:
Actually why i wanna lock the tag is because we wanna put unique ID in each tags, so other people cannot overwritten it.
In your opinion is it possible to do that?

each NFC tag already has a unique UID if im not mistaken
why dont you make your app use that ??
then you can use the tags for other things too
