NFC
NFC is a short-range wireless technology thaths used for quickly creating connections between your 
BlackBerry device and other NFC-enabled devices or NFC tags. NFC is designed so you can easily 
share content and information without having to pair your 
BlackBerry device with another NFC 
compatible device. Depending on your wireless service provider and the applications you have installed 
on your device, there are many interesting things you can do using NFC, such as sharing a picture with a 
friend or paying for a purchase using your device.
What
is
NFC?
The NFC feature might not be available, depending on your wireless service provider, your 
administratorhs settings, and your 
BlackBerry device model.
NFC is a short-range wireless technology that is designed to let you easily share content and information 
without having to use pairing information. Some interesting ways you can use NFC file sharing include:
tExchange contact cards with a new friend or business acquaintance.
tPass a picture to your friend.
tGrab a coupon from a poster you see on the street.
tSend a webpage youhre viewing to a friend.
tAdd a friend to your BBM contacts.
tCopy smart tag information to an NFC tag.
tConnect to an NFC enabled printer to print or scan a file.
Some NFC apps are designed to simulate a physical card, such as a credit card, a public transit pass, or 
an access badge. If the app is open on your device, just tap the back of your device to the NFC reader 
and go. A few examples of what you can do using NFC apps include:
