Video transcript What you need an android device, which is capable of reading NFC tags like the Google Nexus 4 I got here, and, obviously, an NFC tag like this one. To show you how to scan an NFC tag I will tap my phone on the tag like this, and as you might see it leads us to the tb.net website. So I’m going to overwrite this tag now. I am going to use the NFC task launcher app, which you can download from the Play store for free. As you can see, the app offers you certain location profiles, phone control, social options and setting, which you can use to program your NFC tag. But I am going to create a new setting from the drop-down menu. All you have to do is add an action, like this. Now you can choose what action you want your NFC tag to trigger. I am going to choose the Wi-Fi On/Off action and click Next. Now you can choose from the drop down what you want the action to do: you can choose from Enable, Disable or Toggle your Wi-Fi connection. I will choose the Toggle option and press OK. If you want to you can give your NFC tag a name, but I am going to leave it like this for now. And now I will press Save and Write. Now all you need to do is tap the NFC tag with the back of your phone. So, that was pretty easy. Now the NFC tag should be programmed to Toggle my Wi-Fi settings. Let’s see if it works. Yes it worked. As you can see the phone recognized the NFC tag and my Wi-Fi is now turned off. Since I’ve used the Toggle option, it should turn my Wi-Fi back On if I tap the NFC tag again. As you see, my Wi-Fi connection is back On. You can tap the NFC tag again to switch your Wi-Fi off. This is all you need to do to program an NFC tag. You can download the app from the link below.

What I need to do is create allot of tags that have separate URL information, eg; http://www.website.com/001.html http://www.website.com/002.html http://www.website.com/003.html etc. The whole idea is to give out tags to customers and when they scan it on their phone they’re then taken to a specific area of the website. I’ve found lots of apps and software that can do one at a time, but you have to key in all of the info for the URL for the next one. If there was something that could take each URL from a text file of an excel spreadsheet and write a new line from the file for each unit that is written all my problems would be solved. Darren You might wanna try NFC Tag Manager which save your tags on the cloud so when you will have to copy the same tag, you can do that much quicky. But if your websites are non repetitive than search for NFC write (hardware) this works with computer and there might be chances that it can do what you want.
