That might be helpful, I'm not sure (I've "bricked" a couple of sticker ntag216s permanently by accident and stopped playing with that side of things).

I have already been doing both things. sigh

That's great, glad to hear you're all sorted, @Je-Remy-Peters !
Hopefully we hear back from @Luiscortes77 in the same vein soon!

@johnyma22 said in NFC Ring Control app configuration & interaction:

Can I set up a series of actions to occur with one tap of a tag? <-- See The app in Google Play called "Tasker". I'd recommend having one action on each side of the ring.

Will NFC Ring Control recognize and launch any app installed on my device? <-- Depends on the app and what intents it supports. You can use ANY NFC software with our rings, you aren't just limited to ours.
2.1 Or, can I use the writer and ring to accomplish this? See 1.

By the way, these are actions I'll use at the bedside in the morning and night so I’m looking for the best solutions.
Last, I still need to purchase some NFC tags and the best ring. Are there any guidelines or requirements? <-- Just look at the datasheets for each ring to see which suits you best. I'd recommend the 2016 rings for new users and 2013 for more experienced :)
Thanks!

Many thanks for your response. I'll get to work on this and make a decision.

hi i have a similar problem, but the ring just does not get identified. no repsonse whatsoever.

@johnyma22 Thank you for the reply. I understand the difficulty in creating something this durable and I am impressed by your customer support regarding the matter. Although I shan't be pre-ordering, I eagerly await your next release.

Sorry if I'm rezing an old thread but I TOTALLY had one of those things! It was awesome! :D

Re: Broken NFC ring (pictures)
I bought my ring from MCLear Ltda through Amazon.com in August 2016. I used daily for 13 months and one part (Antenna suppose) got lost. The ring stopped working 2 weeks before the final break.

I tried http://www.thesayansblog.net/2017/11/re-enable-nfc-smart-lock.html but it didn't work for me.

I have found another way to re-enable the NFC Smart Lock feature on Android, though it still requires root and manually editing a preferences file.
