Tasker - React To NFC Tag
Summary
TLDRThe video script outlines a step-by-step guide on how to create a Tasker profile that reacts to an NFC card. It begins by instructing viewers to select the 'Profiles' tab and add a new event by searching for 'NFC' and choosing the 'NFC tag' event. The next step is to scan an NFC tag, which allows Tasker to identify the specific tag to trigger the profile. The video demonstrates this by scanning a custom card containing an NFC tag and obtaining its ID. Once the tag's ID is known, the user can create a task associated with the tag. In this example, the task is set to browse a URL that opens a Bob the Builder video. The video concludes by emphasizing the simplicity of the process and hoping the viewers enjoyed the tutorial.

Transcripts
to react to an NFC card in Tasker you
have to create a profile to do that make

the profile trigger whenever an NFC tag
is scanned now you will need to scan the
idea of your tag so that Tasker can know
which tag to react to in this case I've
created a special card that container
contains an NFC tag inside let me scan
that and see that it automatically finds
its ID after finding its ID I can now
create a task for it and this task will
simply browse a URL which I've already
copied here which will open a Bob the
Builder video based on the card so now
whenever I scan this card the video will
open and it's that simple
I hope you enjoyed it bye
