Is my Phone NFC Compatible?

Anyone can have a Tapni on their phone regardless of the model you have.

They don't connect to the phone they are on, they connect to the phone they are sharing information to.

Even if you don't have a phone on this list, you can still use your Tapni by sharing the QR code inside of your profile!

Note:If your Android is on the list but is not working, make sure that the phone has NFC turned on in the phone's settings.

iOS Devices:

  • iPhone 6/6S/6+ —Not Compatible
  • iPhone 7/8/X —Requires iOS 11+, Background Scanning Disabled, NFC read accessible from Control Center.
  • iPhone XS/XS Max/XR and every future iPhone —Fully Compatible, Background Scanning Enabled
