Hi micky266,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! To help isolate the NFC functionality, are you able to test if Apple Pay is working expected? Is the issue only occurring when using the companion app to the diabetic sensor? If so, we would suggest the steps in the following article that will include checking for any updates to the app, , uninstalling and reinstalling the app, and lastly contacting the app developer if needed:


If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open


Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
