How the iPhone 15 Can Use NFC
Apple’s use of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology on the iPhone has evolved significantly. Apple first added support for NFC with the iPhone 7, primarily to enable contactless payments with Apple Pay. With iOS 11, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 gained the ability to read NFC tags which opened a large market for NFC based contactless applications. iOS 12 fixed several issues with the iOS NFC SDK, Core NFC which finally allowed 3rd party developers to build engaging NFC applications.
