Android.Nfc

Provides access to Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality, allowing applications to read NDEF message in NFC tags.

Remarks

Provides access to Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality, allowing applications to read NDEF message in NFC tags. A "tag" may actually be another device that appears as a tag.

For more information, see the Near Field Communication guide.

Here's a summary of the classes:

Android.Nfc.NfcManager: This is the high level manager, used to obtain this device's Android.Nfc.NfcAdapter. You can acquire an instance using Android.Content.Context.GetSystemService(string).
Android.Nfc.NfcAdapter: This represents the device's NFC adapter, which is your entry-point to performing NFC operations. You can acquire an instance with Android.Nfc.NfcManager.DefaultAdapter, or Android.Nfc.NfcAdapter.GetDefaultAdapter(Android.Content.Context).
Android.Nfc.NdefMessage: Represents an NDEF data message, which is the standard format in which "records" carrying data are transmitted between devices and tags. Your application can receive these messages from an Android.Nfc.NfcAdapter.ActionTagDiscovered intent.
Android.Nfc.NdefRecord: Represents a record, which is delivered in a Android.Nfc.NdefMessage and describes the type of data being shared and carries the data itself.

Note: Not all Android-powered devices provide NFC functionality.
