Travel Card Thank god. I had washed my opal card (mifare classic 1k) and thought I totaled it. (Uninstalled this due to using nfc pro tools) but instead, I installed again, tapped my card and was pleased to see it wasn't destroyed. Thanks dudes!

It works pretty well The app can read all Albanian passport info, but it can't get the ID card data

This version works well for my UK & Italian passport This version works like a charm with my UK and Italian passport! Remember to turn off the autostart feature or the application will kick in every time it detects a NFC / RFID tag.

NFC Tag Info Very aggressive at running without being invoked and a bit hard to get rid of. I hope it is finally gone from my phone. Didn't see as much info when using it as I expected.

★☆☆☆☆ A Google User · Feb 26, 2015

App works as desired (maybe) but I've spent 20 min trying to remove it. Absolutely useless, finally I got rid of of it from play market! Press uninstall when app page is opened. All other ways will reboot your device.

BE CAREFUL INSTALLING THIS APP: Seems to work well enough as a NFC reader. I found with hidden apps' detector that the program installs another hidden (potential spyware / malware) program along with the NFC reader by the same developer. This is why I'm giving it a low rating. Be careful using this app. The NXP Tag Info app is a better NFC Tag reader in my opinion.

★★☆☆☆ Chris Awad · May 5, 2016

I can't seem to get this to read my US passport on Android 5.0 (Nexus 6). I get Authentication error. Warning processing: State of non-volatile memory has changed / No information given. The MRTD keys are correct. I was able to get it working with an older phone though, although the NFC is weak.
