First release of NFC Reader for the Light Phone III.

Install

Sideload over ADB with the phone connected:

adb install -r nfc-reader-v1.0.0.apk

If you ran an earlier test build it updates in place. Scan history is kept.

What it does

  • Reads NDEF and bare-UID tags
  • Parses vCard contact tags into name / phone / email
  • Saves every scan to a local history with timestamps
  • Actions bound to a tag's serial number:
    • Webhook: GET/POST/PUT with custom headers, body, optional skip-SSL; has a Test button
    • Show note: displays saved text
    • Open dialer: asks LightOS to open the dialer with a number (from the action, or the contact tag). Uses the SDK's OpenDialer method; not every LightOS build honours it yet
  • Ambient scanning: with the app open on any screen, a tap runs the tag's action and logs it, with a result banner

Known limits

  • NFC is foreground only. A tap does nothing while the app is closed or the screen is off; that is an SDK constraint, notes are in nfc-reader/docs/feature-request-background-nfc.md
  • The Open dialer action is unverified on current LightOS

Ships a launcher icon for sideloaded installs (Obtainium, a normal Android
launcher). LightOS itself shows the tool label.

Debug-signed build, versionCode 2 / versionName 1.0.0.
