Samsung TecTiles 3.0 update offers more options for NFC tagging, now available in Play Store

Samsung TecTiles 30 announced

Samsung’s NFC tagging app — known as TecTiles — made its official debut in June, but the company isn’t putting a halt to its progression anytime soon. This morning Sammy announced version 3.0 of the app, which includes various enhancements that allow for better customization. Among the new features, you can choose from a larger selection of settings that can be programmed into the tags, and you’ll also have the ability to send pre-written emails to a specified address, update your Google+ status, store a history of your profiles, customize preloaded profiles and create private tags that can only be read by your phone. The new refresh is ready to go in the Play Store, so head on over to download it for free — provided, of course, you’ve forked over $15 for a pack of five tags. The press release, along with a full list of supported devices, can be found past the break.
