The DeviceFX NFC App is a fully documented, open-source mobile application available on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, designed specifically to unlock the powerful NFC capabilities of the Cisco Desk Phone 9800 Series. It enables administrators to provision phones to Webex Calling with just a tap: simply search for a user or workspace in Webex, scan the phone’s built-in NFC tag, and the app writes the required configuration directly to the phone, allowing instant registration without manually entering activation codes. Additionally, it can write configuration information to the phone such as WiFi credentials, Cloud Profile for non-Webex Cloud calling services.

The app also serves as an efficient inventory tool, capable of collecting detailed information — including model, serial number, MAC address, and firmware version — from multiple 9800-series phones via quick NFC scans. Collected data can be exported in CSV or XLS format, making it ideal for asset tracking, audits, or generating BAT (Bulk Administration Tool) files for CUCM imports.
