摘要

TLDRThe video provides a guide on how to check and enable NFC (Near Field Communication) on smartphones, mainly focusing on Android devices. NFC, a technology used for close-range communication between devices, is typically available in smartphones running Android 10 or higher. To verify its availability, users should navigate to their phone's settings, check under connected devices, and look for connection preferences where NFC should be listed. Users can enable or disable it, and a pin can be added for security. NFC is widely used for mobile payments through applications like Apple Pay and Google Wallet, allowing users to tap their phones at NFC-enabled payment terminals. Additionally, it can be used for sharing files, photos, and contacts via methods like Android's Quick Share, successor to the older Android Beam. Quick Share allows transferring items by selecting a file, clicking share, choosing Quick Share, and identifying nearby devices to connect with. Moreover, NFC tags can be programmed to perform functions like sharing specific information when tapped by an NFC-enabled phone. This video helps viewers understand if their device supports NFC, how to activate it, and ways to utilize it for both payments and file sharing.

    there's not as much hype as there used
  • 00:00:01
    to be around NFC but in this video we're
  • 00:00:03
    going to show you if your phone has NFC
  • 00:00:06
    on it which most of them do these days
  • 00:00:09
    how to turn on NFC and then I'll talk a
  • 00:00:11
    little bit about what NFC is used for so
  • 00:00:14
    first to find out if your device has NFC
  • 00:00:16
    on it it's like a Sony device they used
  • 00:00:19
    to have a picture of an n on the back
  • 00:00:21
    most of the devices don't have labels on
  • 00:00:25
    the actual phone that it's NFC um so
  • 00:00:27
    you're going to have to check in the
  • 00:00:28
    settings but you can assume if you're
  • 00:00:30
    using Android 10 or higher that you've
  • 00:00:32
    got NFC on your device stands for
  • 00:00:35
    nearfield communication so to just to
  • 00:00:38
    confirm you go to your settings on your
  • 00:00:40
    phone under connected devices on your
  • 00:00:44
    phone you'll go down to connection
  • 00:00:46
    preferences so when you look on
  • 00:00:48
    connection preferences you'll see NFC
  • 00:00:51
    right up top it's a little chip in the
  • 00:00:53
    back of the phone so when you get close
  • 00:00:54
    to another phone you can send things
  • 00:00:57
    over Bluetooth Etc so you click on that
  • 00:01:00
    it looks like it's turned on right now
  • 00:01:02
    so if you see this toggled off this is a
  • 00:01:04
    pixel phone but whether you're on
  • 00:01:06
    Samsung there should be an NFC setting
  • 00:01:08
    in there so you can check on that um so
  • 00:01:11
    you can put a a pin in there if you want
  • 00:01:14
    if you want to make it more secure so
  • 00:01:16
    NFC can be used for all sorts of things
  • 00:01:18
    most commonly I think these days it's
  • 00:01:20
    used for payments like with Apple pay
  • 00:01:23
    Google Wallet Etc you can tap your phone
  • 00:01:26
    even at a store these days lots of them
  • 00:01:28
    have NFC readers you can just tap and
  • 00:01:30
    pay you can also use NFC to share files
  • 00:01:34
    calendars other things from that so on
  • 00:01:38
    an Android device they've renamed the
  • 00:01:41
    NFC sharing from it used to be like
  • 00:01:43
    Android Beam now it's called Quick Share
  • 00:01:46
    so to see what you can do there um you
  • 00:01:49
    go back to your settings on your Android
  • 00:01:52
    phone we're in Connected devices under
  • 00:01:55
    connection preferences you click on
  • 00:01:57
    Quick Share on the bottom so I'm going
  • 00:02:00
    to give you a demo and just show you how
  • 00:02:01
    that works as an example where it says
  • 00:02:04
    who can share with you this is toggled
  • 00:02:06
    on right now and it says contacts if you
  • 00:02:08
    click on that you can see that it's it
  • 00:02:11
    can be shared just with your devices you
  • 00:02:13
    can share it with other contacts in your
  • 00:02:15
    list or you can just share it with
  • 00:02:17
    everybody if you want to use Quick Share
  • 00:02:19
    that way so now that you have Quick
  • 00:02:21
    Share enabled it shows on mine for my
  • 00:02:23
    contacts I'll show you how to use that
  • 00:02:26
    let's say you want to share a photo with
  • 00:02:28
    somebody nearby you have to be near
  • 00:02:29
    nearby CU it's called nearfield
  • 00:02:32
    Communications um click the photo that
  • 00:02:34
    you want to share for an example so I've
  • 00:02:36
    got this cool balloon animal here um you
  • 00:02:39
    click the share button and then you're
  • 00:02:41
    going to scroll down and you see an
  • 00:02:42
    option that says Quick Share so once you
  • 00:02:45
    press that it's going to search for
  • 00:02:47
    nearby devices using that NFC chip in
  • 00:02:50
    your phone um so once someone has a
  • 00:02:52
    nearby device you can click share and
  • 00:02:54
    that photo will be shared directly with
  • 00:02:56
    them you can also use NFC tags so so all
  • 00:03:00
    sorts of capabilities can be programmed
  • 00:03:02
    into the tag such as sharing your
  • 00:03:04
    contacts calendar photos whatever you
  • 00:03:07
    want to share all sorts of options there
  • 00:03:10

  • 00:03:15
    enabled on your phone which most do
