I just bought some NFC tags and my new iphone 12 pro reads them through 3rd party apps but the 'background NFC reader' that the phone is supposed to have doesn't seem to work. I have made sure that I put the tag near the phone when the phone is on, not in airplane mode etc. If anyone has any advice that would be helpful - the same thing happens with my boyfriend's iphone 12 pro
Had the same issue.
solved by using another app for format and re-write the nfc tag, don’t use “nxp tag writer” has some issues, I don’t know why or if only for me... but I used “nfc tools” (https://apps.apple.com/it/app/nfc-tools/id1252962749?l=en) and works great! Each time I pass the tag near the iPhone it get it. Worked for a few days so I think it’s stable ;)
The NFC reader is not in the back like the previous models. It’s in the front on the top of the phone. Right being the speaker.
My iphone 12 pro max cant read the tag "background", it read well when using an Apps /Tool. Which is not convenient and display info/functions is different by apps as well.
I install NFC Tools and the problem remains. But using shortcuts automation it is possible to read and execute an action.
My nfc chip was the problem. The repaired it. Saterday i know if it workst with my libre freestyle chip.
