Feature request: Only scan when app is open

Open morganestes opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

If I set the phone down on a library book (really, just holding it near), the app opens and interrupts anything else I'm doing. For example, reading a book in one hand, streaming a video on my phone in the other, and when my phone got near the book it read the NFC tag in the book and cut off the video.

Please enable a setting to only scan when the app is open with primary focus, or just set that by default.

Cool and nifty tool, in addition to being floss. The only annoyance I've encountered is this very same. A toggle switch or some help text to avoid this would be perfect. TIA.

I would also like to request that you remove this feature from the app :) I have many NFC apps, and I don't want any of them to be sensor hogs.

I second this. Scanning / hook on NFC is a bit annoying.
