My use (for now and the foreseeable future) is mostly just for fun, so I don’t need to do anything crazy with it. I will most likely just use TagWriter to throw in a link or plain text, etc.,
Sounds like a perfect plan.NFC Tools is also a very good option.
This very thorough thread which should give you some really good info about the xSIID and also answer a bunch of your questions…even some you didn’t know to ask.
TL;DR - The first batch of xSIID made December 2019 were formatted to try to use all 2k of memory across two 1k memory sectors for NFC applications, but the NFC stacks built into Android and iOS phones don’t know how to properly read multiple memory sectors in NFC Type 2 chips. Future batches are formatted to only use the first memory sector which is 1k for NFC applications. The remaining 1k is still readable and writable by phones, but only with a custom smartphone app that can directly address…
Happy blinking
