   Welp, I have too many NFC stickers and can't stop tagging things with them.

   Pretty handy for home automation tho 😆

     Just simple examples:

     - virtual light switches, scan one of the tags on the tables / desks to switch light scenes

     - put one on the balcony door to toggle the outdoor lighting

     - check out items at the fridge, automatically restocking beverages

     - scan a plant when you water it, get reminders

     I have some but haven't put them to use. What sort of things have you been doing with them?

     @fribbledom why nfc instead of RFID?

     Home Assistant and NFC Tools/Tasker on Android for me.

     Device still needs be unlocked, but otherwise it's "scan-and-forget".

     @fribbledom What are you using to scan them and to trigger the actions? 🤔

     In case the answer is an Android phone: Which app do you use? I'm still looking for something seamlessly scanning NFC tags triggering stuff without first asking me which app to open and what to do etc…
