As we mentioned back in December, Google revealed that new NFC capabilities would come with the new system. Yesterday Google has announced an update to Android 2.3 which enables more near-field communication (NFC) functionality for developers and future phones.
With this release, we can see some new features added in the 2.3.3 platform:
- A comprehensive NFC reader/writer API that lets apps read and write to almost any standard NFC tag in use today.
- Advanced Intent dispatching that gives apps more control over how/when they are launched when an NFC tag comes into range.
- Some limited support for peer-to-peer connection with other NFC devices.
In Android 2.3.3, Google has added a full-featured NFC read and write API, which will work with “almost any standard NFC tag in use today.” They’re also providing developers with better control over how their apps react when an NFC tag comes into range.
