A discreet lanyard add-on that does the “remembering” bit.
This Heart Jar NFC Tag is a tap-to-open add-on designed for lanyards, but it’s just as handy clipped onto anything you’d normally pop a keyring on; bags, coats, keys, pencil cases, zip pulls, ID holders, phone straps, backpacks, travel cases, lunch bags — you name it.
We programme it for you before it leaves us, so it’s ready to use straight away.
Just tap it with a smartphone and it opens the action you’ve chosen.
What it can do (we programme it for you)
Tap to Call – opens the phone dialler with your chosen number ready
Tap for Directions – opens maps to your chosen address
Tap to Open a Link – opens any URL you choose (for example a calming playlist, a school website, a form, or your socials)
Tap to Save Contact – opens a contact card so details can be saved to a phone
Some phones may ask you to tap a prompt or press call — that’s normal.
Link ideas (if you choose the link option)
A calming playlist (or a track link if you prefer)
A breathing exercise page or gentle timer
School website or parent portal
A form you always need (medical, school, travel)
Your Instagram/TikTok or small business page
A Google Maps pin (if you’d rather use a link than directions)
What it’s for (real-life stuff)
-
Mind blank moments: tap instead of trying to remember what you meant to do

Out and about support: quick access to help info without a big conversation

How people set theirs up
Emergency contact (tap to call)
Directions home / school / a safe place
A link they want fast access to (calming playlist, bus/train info, school website, important form, socials)
What we need from you
Choose your option and add the number, address, or link at checkout – we programme it before shipping.
For Save Contact, add the name + number (and email if you want).
Need to change it later? We can reprogramme it for you (return service) — you just cover postage.

How to use
-
Pick your action: Tap to Call, Tap for Directions, or Tap to Open a Link
-
We programme it for you, so there’s nothing to fiddle with
-
Give it a quick test when it arrives, just so you know it’s doing exactly what you wanted
-
Tap the tag with a phone to open the action (some phones show a prompt first)
-
Keep it where you’ll actually reach for it: lanyard, keys, bag strap, coat zip, pencil case, ID holder
-
Some links may open in your browser/app depending on your phone and installed apps
-
Tip: tap the back of the phone near the top for the best scan. Very thick cases or metal phone backs can affect scanning — try without the case if needed.
Phone compatibility
Works with most modern smartphones with NFC enabled (iPhone and Android).
Your phone may need to be unlocked to use it.
If NFC is turned off in settings, the tag won’t open until it’s enabled.
This isn’t GPS tracking — it only works when someone taps it with a phone.
Privacy note (quick but important)
Anyone with physical access to the tag can tap it, so keep your setup sensible. Avoid storing anything you wouldn’t want a stranger to access.
