That doesn't mean you won't be able to use this feature, but don't get your hopes up, there are other reasons you won't be able to use it.

You need a very very specific Android phone for this feature to work. I think only a few models from different makers work... I can't even remember which ones they are.

Upcoming iPhones will enable this feature soon, but maybe not until iOS 14 or later.

Indeed, you have to have a Samsung 8 or newer because they have NFC. Fortunately, I have an S8 & gotta' say it's great, though I've had a few problems with it being associated with correct profile
