NFC could easily be implemented so that permission isn't necessary, but even then tapping on one's screen (only the sender has to tap in the existing implementation of Android Beam) is much lower friction than scanning a QR code.
swipe>unlock password> 123456 AppX>locate, open Permission?>Y/N Its not frictionless either way. NFC cannot be trusted. You need to aknoweldge Y/N prior to letting anything write data onto a phone. Too much risk otherwise.
You don't need to location AppX, the Android Intent system (Android being the only consumer mobile platform with an NFC implementation at the moment) can respond to the data in the NFC tag and open the appropriate app.
I'm not claiming it's frictionless, but just that there's less friction than a QR code.

#56Apparently the NFC opens a link to a QR code.
Ha very funny. My first thought was 'this sounds awfully a lot like a QR code'. Also, as an iPhone user I feel NFC is not used nearly enough. Maybe Android users feel differently but until NFC is brought to the iphone I just dont see this being that useful. I think NFC is great for things like payment. I actually used it for the first time in a new AMEX credit card that I got by just being able to tap the card on the…
As an Android user, I've used NFC primarily to share apps with other users. I just open the app, tap phones, and presto they've got the Play Store open with the app.
