Nothing, and I mean NOTHING from Sony will work. Spend $3,000 on a TV from them? HA! You won't even get the features of a $30 chromecast or fire stick. Screen mirroring? HAHA! Forget it! I used to be a loyal Sony customer. From now on, I will buy anything BUT sony. Including playstation. I must have in excess of $20,000 of Sony products in my house. Not including everything else I've bought over the last 2 decades. Hell, their own products don't even work with THEIR PRODUCTS!!!

First of all this is a real review and some of the people having a problem with the might not have nfc or nfc enabled devices. Very helpful I downloaded it because every time I tried to pair with my Sony Bluetooth speaker it wouldn't work but with this it is faster and easier. Would recommend this to anyone with the same problem I'm using a Sony xperia x (which is an extremely good and fast phone)

Got a sony bluetooth car sterio and samsung a3 which are allegedly compatible. However they are not because when touching nfc button to make a call or text whilst on the move no verbal feedback is made through the sterio unit so without looking at the phone you do not know if you are calling or texting the right person and if what you said is being sent. Ask for help neither sony or samsung are bothered.

When I get in my car, get in the shower, leave the house or even go to bed. With one tap my phone is like a personal Butler. A life enhancing app! Thank you Sony! Just make sure you know where your NFC reader is on your phone. No need to tap. 1/2 inch distance is perfect.

Have Sony Xperia z and Sony wireless speaker, both allegedly compatible. After a wasted 45 minutes meticulously following instructions gave up and paired them the old fashioned way.

NFC pairing doesn't work on my Galaxy S3. Always give me the "fail to pair" message. After manually pairing the unit with my device, NFC connection trigger works fine though. (Including automatic power on the unit)

About this app

The NFC Easy Connect app allows your smartphone to connect easily with NFC-compatible Sony devices (speakers, headphones, etc.).
Just touch your smartphone to the N mark on an NFC-compatible Sony device to register (pair) the devices and connect them through Bluetooth (one-touch connection).
For details on smartphones on which the NFC Easy Connect app needs to be installed, check “Compatible smartphones” below.
You do not need to install the NFC Easy Connect app if you are using an NFC-compatible smartphone with Android OS 4.1 or later installed.

- Compatible smartphones
NFC-compatible smartphones with Android 2.3.3 or later (prior to Android 4.1) installed

Some smartphones may already have an app installed with similar functions. In this case, the NFC Easy Connect app is not needed.
See the manual of your smartphone for details.

See the following website for details on NFC-compatible Sony devices.

- Making a one-touch connection with your smartphone
1. Unlock the screen.
2. Touch the NFC detection area of your smartphone that has this app installed to the N mark on an NFC-compatible Sony device.
3. The smartphone vibrates when a connection to the NFC-compatible Sony device is established.
(You do not need to activate the NFC Easy Connect app.)

- Main functions
1. Simple device registration (pairing) and connection by one touch. (NFC Bluetooth Handover)
Touching your smartphone to an NFC-compatible Sony device turns the power of the device on and establishes a Bluetooth connection at the same time.
Even when connecting to an NFC-compatible Sony device for the first time, both device registration and Bluetooth connection can be completed with this one-touch operation.

2. Simple disconnection by one touch.
To disconnect the connection, simply touch the smartphone to the NFC-compatible Sony device.

3. Simple switching of connected devices by one touch.
If you have multiple NFC-compatible Sony devices, just touch the smartphone to a different device to disconnect from the current device and connect to the new one.
For example, if your smartphone is connected with NFC-compatible headphones through a Bluetooth connection and you want to connect to an NFC-compatible speaker instead, just touch the smartphone to the speaker to establish a Bluetooth connection to the speaker.

4. Operation at your fingertips
You can turn the Bluetooth function on and off, and connect or disconnect easily using the app screen.

- Check the following if a connection cannot be established.
1．Make sure the NFC Easy Connect app is activated or the NFC function of your smartphone is turned on.
2．Make sure the screen of your smartphone is unlocked.
3．Depending on the smartphone you are using, it may not be possible to make a one-touch connection while the smartphone is being charged. Finish charging first, then perform the one-touch operation.
4．If the smartphone is in a case, the listening device may not react to one-touch; remove the smartphone from the case first.
