How to distribute contact information on iOS 17

Using NFC Tags to Share Your Contact Information

NFC (Near Field Communication) tags are small, wireless devices that can be used to share information between two devices. With iOS 17, you can now use NFC tags to share your contact information with others. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Contacts app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on a contact you want to share with someone else.
  3. Tap the “Share” icon at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Select “NFC Tag.”
  5. Hold the NFC tag near the recipient’s device and wait for it to receive your contact information.

Using Apple Pay to Share Your Contact Information

Another way to share your contact information on iOS 17 is to use Apple Pay. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Wallet app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap “Add Card” and add a new credit or debit card.

    3. Using Apple Pay to Share Your Contact Information

  3. After adding the card, go back to the main menu of the Wallet app.
  4. Tap “Card Details.”
  5. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and tap “Contact Information.”
  6. Enter your name and contact information.
  7. Go back to the main menu of the Wallet app and tap “Pay” at a store that supports Apple Pay.
  8. The recipient can then use their Apple device to receive your contact information by tapping “Add Contact” in the Pay app and selecting “From Card.”

Using Siri to Share Your Contact Information

Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant, can also be used to share your contact information. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Contacts app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on a contact you want to share with someone else.
  3. Say “Hey Siri, tell [contact’s name] my number.” or “Hey Siri, send [contact’s email address] a message.”
  4. Siri will then send the contact information to the recipient via text message or email.

Using iCloud to Share Your Contact Information Across Devices

Finally, you can use iCloud to share your contact information across all of your Apple devices. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Contacts app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on a contact you want to share with someone else.
  3. Say “Hey Siri, add [contact’s name] to contacts.” or “Hey Siri, invite [contact’s email address] to group chat.”
  4. iCloud will then automatically sync the changes across all of your Apple devices.
