Big props. NFC is much better experience than scanning QR. It's great that it automatically triggers Breez. Wouldn't this just seamlessly work for any wallet that supports "lightning:ln.." prefix? What specifically do the wallet apps have to do? My understanding is that Android scans and gets the string from the card and it calls any app that is registered on "lightning:"... which is WoS, Muun and any other... is that not the case?

I think this is exactly as you say. On Android, apps can hook into certain URI's. At least from all wallets that I have on my phone, only Breez and Zap wallet do that so far. It should be very easy to enable this for other wallets as well.

This is actually really cool. Hopefully other Lightning wallets implement something like this.
