About NFC Easy Connect

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.

Don't understand how Sony can have this app when can't even connect my expensive Bluetooth headphones. Crashes in marshmallow immediately. How about a fix?

Obviously Jason K didnt read the description. This app works great and does what it does: easily pair your NFC devices. It never claimed it could write to tags

I tried to sync my Sony headphones with my Samsung Galaxy S5 using this app for over 30 minutes, and it didn't work. The app even kept closing.

App does not work. Only reason I downloaded was to transfer music files from my old phone to the new one. App too lame to do anything. Not compatible with HTC One S

Can't seem to pair my Moto G with my Sony Wireless Headphones MDR-ZX750BN via Bluetooth even when using NFC Easy Connect.

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)

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!!!

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.

I have a Note 4 and the dr-btn200 headset and at times, after a while the headset disconnects , I have to reestablish the connection with the play button. I can't even use it with my windows system, it's terrible I invested in this device and I can't use it without issues!

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.

Does what it says. But when I manually disconnect the Bluetooth in the control bar widget and then attempt to open the App and click to connect again...it crashes. Five stars if it gets updated and fixed...if they care.

No added value & functions. Crashes when trying to connect a device that is already in your bluetooth list. 1 star for looking pretty.

Somewhat slow detecting each other but overall no issues using this and Sony Play Memories app to transfer photos from the camera to the phone (with case on).

Hi guys... I use the NFC Easy Connect while using your in ear sport headphones. Obviously, during my workout, I put my phone on "do not disturb mode". When someone calls, my phone remains silent, but the NFC Easy Connect bluntly cuts of the music and keeps on ringing in my ears while I am trying to enjoy some "me time". Is there any way either to have the NFC app recognize the "do not disturb" mode or to cut it of from the phone all together (I never use my sports headphones for phonecalls)?

I used this app with my SONY Xperia phone and tried connecting it to SONY wireless headphones and didn't work. I don't know how Sony would allow this app to go to market if not 100% compatible and fully functional.

Tried to pair Sony headphones with Galaxy S5 and nothing. I just held the button on the headphones for two seconds and it worked perfectly, so this app is useless.

Installed on my tablet Sony Xperia Z2 and also on Asus ZenFone 2. Don't forget to switch on your NFC to avoid issue and make sure to align NFC marks from phone or tablet and the device you want to connect to.

Not sure I would use this in the car, why use the phone while driving? I use this app in the boat and love it! The head unit is 15' away in the cabin, the app makes it so nice being able to adjust audio settings and volume on the fly.
