Why is my Quick N Easy Review Stand not working?

To see the Quick N Easy Review Stand in action, simply tap your NFC-enabled smartphone on it.  The NFC chip works within 2 inches of the smartphone and is located at different spots on different phones, so may want to move your phone until you get a read.

If you are not getting a read:

1.  Make sure your phone is not in airplane mode.

2.  NFC functionality may be affected by thick or metal phone covers. It's often recommended to try removing the cover first.

iPhone tips:

  • Where to scan: On an iPhone, the NFC reader is located in the very top center of the phone, right behind the front-facing camera. The tag will scan from the frontside or backside of the phone.
  • NFC is always on, starting with the iPhone XR and newer (2018)
  • The phone must be unlocked to scan, sometimes the always-on display of newer iPhones is deceiving, make sure the user unlocks the phone otherwise, it will not scan.

Android tips:

  • Where to Scan: Most Androids scan from the center-backside of the phone.
  • NFC can be toggled on/off in settings so be sure your NFC is turned on. This will be in settings next to Bluetooth and wifi. 
  • NFC is on by default. The phone must be unlocked to scan.
