NFC (Near Field Communication) is a technology that enables short-distance wireless communication. Through its’s point-to-point mode, two devices can transfer data in real time when they are within 10 cm (4 inches) of each other. Photos, networks, and apps can all be quickly shared using this method. NFC read/write mode lets you check product information contained in NFC tags which enable payments like Google Pay, Samsung Pay, Apple Pay and others.
There are many things you can do with this technology. This technology’s card emulation mode allows your device to act as a bank card for quick and easy payments.
How to Share Data Quickly using NFC
NFC lets you share data across two devices quickly without the hassle of pairing. Simply place the NFC detection areas of both your devices in close proximity to each other, and then you can transfer files and other data quickly between the two devices.
Sending data
Using this technology depends on your device configuration. Open Settings, touch Device connectivity and enable NFC. Select the files you want to send and touch Share > Android Beam. Keep your Phone unlocked and the screen on. Place the NFC detection areas of both devices close together. Once a connection is established, the transmitting device will play an audio alert and minimize the sharing screen. Touch the transmitting device’s screen to send files.
Receiving files
Open Settings, then touch Device connectivity and enable NFC and Android Beam. Keep your Phone unlocked and the screen on. Place the NFC detection areas of both devices close together. Once a connection is established, the transmitting device will play an audio
prompt. After the prompt, please wait for the file transfer to complete. Received files are saved by default to the Beam folder of your Files.
Establish Connections between Devices
Place the NFC detection areas of two devices close together to quickly establish a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection between them. You can also use this method to establish a Wi-Fi Direct connection or share a WiFi hotspot without searching for devices, pairing and entering connection details manually.
Using Bluetooth pairing as an example, enable NFC, Huawei Beam, and Bluetooth on both devices. Open the Bluetooth pairing screen on both devices and place the NFC detection areas of devices close together. When the sending device plays an audio prompt and content on the screen shrinks, follow the onscreen instructions and touch the screen on the sending device to establish a Bluetooth connection.
