I believe it will help salespeople and is a great way to make a good impression in front of the customer.

Great Content! Is the QR-Code Dynamic? Secondly, what can be used application can be used to modify the information encoded on the QR-Code?

@minhsao 2 года назад

No the QR codes that is shown in this video is not dynamic. You can use websites like I recommended in the video to create dynamic QR codes, but it will cause you a subscription fee... I made my own and I will be publishing a video on that soon... so stay tuned. As far as modification ... you can't modify information on the QR code.

@minhsao Год назад

Hello there... I love NYC.. I was just there few weeks ago for the US Open. Anyways to answer your questions the vcard file (VCF) in the demo is just another URL. unfortunately it will only hold one URL. however, the NFC does have contact fields, however that information is not automatically picked up by IOS. It's useful to take a look at NFCtools app. It will help you out. Good luck and thanks again for watching my videos.

@carlo.riente 2 года назад

Great, thank you! Do you know how to make it works on Android? It seems to work only with Safari but not with Chrome. Cheers

@minhsao 2 года назад

It is dependent on the phone. This demo and most of the commercial smart business cards are banking on that most people have iPhones. The default iPhone browser is Safari and it works well with safari to pull up contact etc. I am sure you can do the same with certain android phones, but some may require manual config. I do not have any android phone so I can't test it. Maybe I will get one if this channel gets big enough or if this video hits 1M views :). Good luck!

@gabealbuquerque1728 2 года назад

Question, Can you set the NFC to notify you of a specific NFC that was scanned? - I work off referrals. I would love to be able to leave an NFC with one of my referral partners let their customers scan that NFC so they have my info, but also know which partner referred that customer

@ChristopherCollinssr 2 года назад

I got you.

@minhsao 2 года назад

Yes that’s a great idea and yes it it totally doable!! But to do this you will use different URLs that can be linked to the same VCF. You can use a url shortener to do that and simpler look at the number of times that shorten address has been triggered. I hope this makes sense and helps.. good luck!

@4144758 Год назад

If you are just storing a link in the NFC and it has analytics then sure! Well assuming an IP address and relative location is good enough... Time and date too.... Just make sure you use a free link provider with metrics

@Alabamamobileweb Год назад

Just a couple of my thoughts. I don't see that many phones, especially android phone's that support nfc. My work around accomplishing the same thing is to create a vcf contact qrcode as you did in the video and then download it and store it on my cell phone. When I want to share it I just open the code in my phone and the person I'm sharing it to scans the code with their phone and my contact info is immediately download to their phone. And by the way, "war eagle" 😀

@sadiaafrin4825 Год назад

Does the nfc function work without any internet connection on the phone??? Most of us here don’t use mobile data, so kinda hard to share info if it requires internet

@minhsao Год назад

Yes and no... so there is a way to store contact info into the NFC, but iphone doesn't pick that up automatically. That is an implementation flaw of the Apple iPhone. So to do that you will need to manually open up a NFC reader. So the short answer is NO based on this video's implementation we will need to have an internet connection to access the URL to the vcf file. But again that is why there is the second method of using the QR code, which I talked about in this video. Thanks for your question and good luck!

@robertomorzone1480 Год назад

Good morning, in the meantime, I congratulate you on your videos. I have a question: I tried to follow your instructions and it works, but instead of saving the vcf file on Dropbox, it is not possible to indicate in NCF Tools the path of the file inside the iphone? Let me explain better: if NCF Tools through the specified dropbox address, displays the vcf file, in the same way, if you could put the address of the vcf file (which is already inside the iphone), it should not work the same? But I don't know how to indicate the path of a file inside the iPhone. Then, I have another question: If we send our business card to the other person's cell phone via the Dropbox link, how does he then save it in the contacts? I have not succeeded. Thanks in advance and congratulations again for your videos. Roberto.

@minhsao Год назад

Yes .. it maybe possibel to get the NFT tool to point a path inside the iphone... but it was be the path inside the scanner's iphone which will not have the vcf file or the contact information. The best way is to have the NFC itself to have the contact information as part of the memory, it is possible, but IOS doesn't support auto NFC scan for this field.... good luck!

@robertomorzone1480 Год назад

@@minhsao Thanks for the reply. In the end I decided to get to the vcf file with a link and place the file in the datrabase of my site. But a strange thing happens, the iphone reads the nfc card, opens the contact and saves it in the phone. With Android, it doesn't ask me to save the number on my mobile, but it asks me where to download the vcf file. What am I doing wrong? I noticed that the nfc vcards that are on sale open a kind of page (it looks like a landing page), and then from there, they allow the contact to be saved on the phone using a button. But with android, it always asks to download the vcf file. In your opinion, is it complicated to build a page to which the link of the nfc points and then from there, make it so that through a button you can save the contact in the phone? Thanks in advance and sorry for the many questions. Congratulations again for what you publish. Roberto.

@@robertomorzone1480 Thanks again for watching my video. No it is not difficult to create your home html and have it linked to various places including to your VCF file.

@minhsao 2 года назад

Yeah... so did you know that V1ce actually don't change anything in the cards. In short, they are using a URL forwarder, and when they say you can change it dynamical, it is simply changing the forwarding URL. So I can actually accomplish this by using a URL shortener and then use the Shorten URL as the link inside the NFC. Then when I want to change where it is going, I simply change the URL inside the URL shortener site and I now have a way to switch between different vcf . I hope this makes sense and helps. If there are interest I may make a video on it. Good luck!
