Near Field Communication (NFC) Technology
NFC (Near Field Communication) technology is a short-range, wireless technology that lets you
quickly and wirelessly exchange information between your phone and other NFC-enabled
smartphones, smart accessories, and NFC-enabled access points. You can also use NFC
technology to save, view, create, or change smart tags.
Depending on the applications that you have added to your phone, you might be able to use your
phone as a transit pass or as an access pass, by tapping the back of your phone against an NFC-
enabled access point, subject to applicable terms and conditions from the particular vendor.
Mobile payments, wireless connections, and content sharing all demand security:
n
Range: NFC only works over a short range (about 4 cm/1.5 inches), so it's unlikely you’ll connect
by mistake—if you did, you would still have to accept the connection to send or receive
information.
n
Encryption: Your phone uses the latest security, encryption, and authentication features to
protect your personal information for mobile payments and content sharing.
Turn NFC On and Off
You can turn your phone’s NFC feature on and off.
