Update your smartphone and the app

Easiest solution to most problems with the app will always be:

Nothing happens when I scan

In order to use twICEme, you need to place the NFC antenna on your smartphone directly on top of the twICEme symbol on the equipment within 10 mm. Also, please take into consideration:
- The placement of NFC antennas may differ from different smartphone brands and models
- Avoid thick cases on your smartphone

No menu button on iPhone

Your operative system on your iPhone is too old, hence all NFC functionalities hasn't been updated. Please update to at least iOS 13 and update the twICEme app.

“NFC hardware not found” message

If you get the warning NFC hardware not found, the NFC functionality on your smartphone is switched off. If you have e.g. an updated Android smartphone, you can turn it on by going to: Settings -> Connected Devices -> Connection Preferences -> NFC.
