How to use NFC tags
with the mini apps

New to NFC? No worries. Here's exactly how to set up a tag for each mini app — it only takes a minute.

💧

Water Tracker + NFC

Stick a tag on your water bottle. Every time you fill up, tap the bottle with your phone to log a glass — no need to open the app.

1

🛒 Get an NFC sticker

Grab an NTAG215 sticker. Search "NTAG215 stickers" on Amazon. Any NFC sticker works, but NTAG215 is the most popular and reliable.

2

📱 Create the Shortcut

Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone. Tap + to create a new shortcut. Search for "Log Water" — you'll see the NFCThis action. Add it, and name your shortcut something like "Log Water".

🗣️ You can also say "Log water in NFCThis" to Siri
3

✍️ Write the shortcut to your NFC tag

In NFCThis, go to the Create tab. Pick the "Shortcut Trigger" preset. Type the name of your shortcut (e.g., "Log Water"). Tap Write to Tag, then hold a blank NFC sticker to the top of your phone.

4

📌 Stick the tag on your water bottle

Peel the sticker and place it on your water bottle, lid, or coaster — wherever you'll naturally see it. The sticker is thin and waterproof.

5

Tap to log — done!

Every time you fill your bottle, hold the top of your iPhone near the sticker. The shortcut runs in the background — no app opens, no fuss.

Siri Response
"Logged 250ml of water!"
🎯

Pro tip

Open the Water Tracker in the Explore tab anytime to see your progress ring and today's log. Your goal is 8 glasses — the ring fills up as you go!

💬

Daily Quote + NFC

Put a tag on your bathroom mirror, bedside table, or desk. Tap it each morning to get a motivational quote — a simple way to start your day right.

1

🛒 Get an NFC sticker

Grab an NTAG215 sticker — the smallest NFC tag works fine for this. You can also use a keychain tag or NFC card if you prefer.

2

📱 Create the Shortcut

Open the Shortcuts app. Tap +, search for "Daily Quote", and add the NFCThis action. Name it "Daily Quote" or "Morning Quote".

🗣️ You can also say "Inspire me with NFCThis" to Siri
3

✍️ Write the shortcut to your NFC tag

In NFCThis, go to Create > Shortcut Trigger. Type the name of your shortcut. Tap Write to Tag and hold the sticker to your phone.

4

📌 Place the tag where you'll see it

Great spots: bathroom mirror (morning routine), bedside table (wake-up ritual), desk (work break), or fridge (grab a snack + get inspired).

5

Tap for daily inspiration!

Hold your phone near the tag. Siri reads you a random motivational quote from a curated collection of 500+. A different quote every tap.

🌱

Care Tracker + NFC

Stick a tag on your pet's food bowl or plant pot. Tap it when you feed or water — the app tracks your schedule and tells you when care is due.

1

Add your pet or plant in the app

Open NFCThis, go to Explore > Care Tracker. Tap + to add an item. Give it a name (e.g., "Buddy" or "Fern"), pick the type (pet or plant), and set how often it needs care.

💡 Set "every 1 day" for daily feeding, "every 3 days" for watering plants
2

📱 Create a Shortcut with the item name

Open Shortcuts, tap +, search for "Log Care", and add the NFCThis action. It will ask for an Item Name — type the exact name you used in step 1 (e.g., "Buddy").

⚠️ The name must match exactly — "Buddy" not "buddy"
3

✍️ Write the shortcut to an NFC tag

In NFCThis, go to Create > Shortcut Trigger. Type the shortcut name. Tap Write to Tag and hold a blank NFC sticker to your phone.

4

📌 Stick the tag where it matters

For pets: food bowl, treat jar, or near their cage. For plants: directly on the pot, or on the shelf nearby. Use one tag per pet or plant.

5

Tap to log care — no more forgetting!

After feeding Buddy or watering Fern, tap the tag with your phone. The care event is logged instantly in the background.

🐾
Siri Response
"Logged care for Buddy!"
🎯

Pro tip

The Care Tracker shows color-coded status for each item:

  • Green — all good, recently cared for
  • Yellow — due soon, time to check
  • Red — overdue, needs attention now
