I’m a little confused about the NFC tags.
Do each tag have a unique ID? Do users need to write something on each one, so that they know which is which?
Trigger1
Trigger2
etc??
NFC tags have, for all practical purposes, unique IDs (UUID).

I’m using generic NFC tags I purchased off Amazon. I’ve encoded the tag to trigger a URL when read that corresponds to the universal URL of LCP and incorporates a trigger ID so that LCP knows what it is required to do. This is entirely independent of the NFC tag’s UUID.
I don’t have anything visually written on my tags. Due to their location and the term I use as the trigger, that is enough for me to correlate the two. For example I have one on my Logitech keyboard I use with my iPad. That one’s trigger is “keyboard”.
