How to get AID for a specific NFC TAG-CodePudding

I am trying to read an NFC tag of type ISO 14443-3a (NXP - NTAG215) with NFCTagReaderSession. With NFCNDEFReaderSession it works without any problems. However, since I only support devices from iOS 13 and need access to various other tag information (tag ID, etc.), I use NFCTagReaderSession:

session = NFCTagReaderSession(pollingOption: [.iso14443, .iso15693, .iso18092], delegate: self)
session?.alertMessage = alertMessage ?? ""
session?.begin()

Unfortunately, the tag is simply not detected with NFCTagReaderSession.

I guess the application identifier is not listed in my Info.plist (com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.iso7816.select-identifiers) file. Unfortunately I have no idea how to find the correct AID. I have listed all possible AIDs I could find:

<key>com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.felica.systemcodes</key>
<array>
  <string>12FC</string>
</array>
<key>com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.iso7816.select-identifiers</key>

The correct AID is apparently not there yet.

How do I find the correct AID for my tag? Can I read it somewhere?

CodePudding user response：

ISO 14443-3a (NXP - NTAG215) Tags do not have Application IDentifiers (AID's) as they are NFC Forum Type 2 Tags only NFC Forum Type 4 Tags use AID's

I believe NTAG215 are treated at Mifare Tags in iOS (more specifically a NFCMiFareUnknown as they are NcfA Tags or possibly NFCMiFareUltralight Type as they have a very similar command set to a Mifare Ultralight Tag)

Therefore you would use sendMiFareCommand to communicate with it or NFCNDEFReaderSession as they are fully compliant with the Ndef Standard.

Though for iOS I believe it does not handle Ndef formattable cards correctly (so if the NTAG 215 is not delivered formatted then you cannot write Ndef data to it NFCNDEFReaderSession without formatting it via sendMiFareCommand first)

Hopefully will help as I stay away from iOS due to it's poor NFC support.

Make sure to add “Privacy - NFC Scan Usage Description” to Info.plist
