Good to know

  1. Use NFC is already switched on in the recording, so the guide shows where the setting lives and how to confirm it rather than a change being applied.
  2. NFC lives under Connected devices > Connection preferences, not on the Settings home page — searching for NFC is the fastest way in.
  3. Below Use NFC, the page also offers Contactless payments and a Require device unlock switch.
