Windows Phone 8 added support for NFC which can be found in phones like the 8X and Lumia 920. It’s a cool feature that often gets overlooked among the other more popular features like lockscreen apps and fast resume. Developers, however, have not forgotten about NFC. There are a few really nice apps in the Windows Phone Store that will help you put NFC to good use.

We wrote about what you can do with NFC and an app called NFC Interactor back in November. Since then an app called NFC LauFbinchit has been released, and it offers even more features. In the video above we took a look at both NFC Interactor and NFC Launchit. Both have similar features, but do the same tasks in different ways. One of the big differences is price. Interactor costs $1.99, but it does have a free trial limited to writing 20 tags. Launchit, on the other hand, is completely free, and it might even have more options. Watch the video and check them both out.
