Libre NFC
These days almost all phones support NFC scanning. If yours does, you can scan your Libre 1, US 14 days, Libre 2/2+ (EU) and Libre Pro sensor with xDrip+ in addition to the vendor supplied LibreLink. Please note, xDrip+ NFC scan cannot start a sensor - only LibreLink - (or the reader) can do this.

Supported data sources⌁
In order to access the NFC menu, you need to select one of the Libre data sources.
If you will only use xDrip+ to scan the sensor you should choose LibreAlarm.
Note
If you enable xDrip+ NFC scan support, you should disable any other app that will try to read NFC devices in order to avoid conflicts. This is especially true for the Libre vendor app.
Configure NFC⌁
Configure NFC exactly like this.
Supported sensors⌁
Only Libre 1 and Pro are natively supported by xDrip+ for NFC readings. In order to scan a Libre 14 days US or a Libre 2 Europe you need an Out of Process Algorithm installed on the phone.
