What's this new notification icon on my Android phone?

[Thurlow]

Like a sideways Z. Suddenly appeared today. Been Googling with no luck. Anyone know what it is?

[sunbathe]

NFC notification. Do you have it switched on?

[sunbathe]

That was meant to say, NFC?

[Thurlow]

How would I check that?

[sunbathe]

Look in your settings. Mine's under 'connect and share'.

[booksandchoc]

Settings > wireless and networks > NFC - just untick it.

[Thurlow]

Ooh, that did it - thank you! What was it?

[sunbathe]

It's so you can send data to another device, just by putting it near it.
