Help Galaxy Note 4 Icons

[tntTroy]

Hi all. Just got a Galaxy NOTE 4 and have an icon between bluetooth and the 4G/LTE icons that I dont recognize. Ive looked around and havent found it.

Its a TMobile SM-N910T running android 6.

Any ideas?

That there would be the NFC icon: (Near Field Communication)

You can turn off NFC in your settings/share & connect

Edit: oh, sorry but, Welcome to AF!!

I don't use it much save for the occasional Android Pay

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a wireless connectivity technology that enables two-way communication between electronic devices. It operates over a distance of a few centimeters. You can share your content with an NFC tag or another NFC support device by simply touching it with your device.

Communicate with other NFC phones to share info, read NFC tags to perform pre-programmed functions, communicate with POS terminals to use Android Pay or Samsung Pay.
