Device support for Core NFC? does it work on iPad?

Does Core NFC works on iPad?

To sum up, iPad does have NFC chips, but the Core NFC documentation does not say it support it.

Note

Reading NFC NDEF tags is supported on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

running this iOS11-NFC-Example on emulator will always get Feature not supported on all devices.

No ! for now Core NFC don't support iPads and iPhone lesser than iPhone 7.

iPhone Series of 7, 8 and iPhone X only supported by Core NFC. and if you want to identify in your code that the device your app is running on supports Core NFC or not can be done by this

if (NFCNDEFReaderSession.readingAvailable)

   {
        NSLog(@"NFC is Available");
}
else
{
 NSLog(@"NFC is not Available");
}
