I'm using the NFC Task Launcher for launching actions stored on my own tags. This works fine.

What I'm searching for is an app that associates a certain action with an arbitrary tag. An example: my company ID card has an NFC tag. This tag cannot be changed by me. But I want to activate the "At Work" profile when I scan that tag.

So, the actual action is NOT stored on the tag but on the phone and gets triggered by reading that tag.

Is there an app that I could use for that?

  • Old question, but Automate allows you to trigger actions based on a tag id. Note that it recommends against it due to some tags randomly generating ids - so if your tag is one of these them you might struggle regardless of what app you use.

I've been looking at Llama. You can set actions based on conditions, and one of the selectable conditions is NFC tag detected. I haven't tried this myself yet, but the program is pretty well thought out. Highly recommended!

  • whoa! great! must have been introduced in the short past. Aside of the NFC functionality, it seems like Llama was the app I was actually looking for! You get the accept for this!
