Questions

• Is NIFly an official app?

  No. NIFly is an independent app. It is not affiliated with Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira, and it does not connect to any tax service.

• Where is my NIF stored?

  On your iPhone, and in your own backups of it. NIFly has no account and no server, and sends nothing to us or anyone else.

• Will every shop be able to scan it?

  Most scanners read the barcode. Where one does not, or there is no scanner, the cashier types the large digits beside it.

• Does it work without a connection?

  Yes. Showing, scanning and reading aloud all work offline, and so does the unlock once bought.

• What does the unlock add?

  More than one profile now, and Apple Watch when it arrives. It is paid once. The free app is complete for one NIF.

• How do I get my purchase on a new iPhone?

  Add your first profile, then open Profiles, tap + and choose Restore purchases. In this version profiles are not copied between devices, so add them again on the new iPhone.

• Can I hide my NIF on the Lock Screen?

  Yes. In Profiles, turn on Hide on Lock Screen. Lock Screen widgets then show a lock, and a tap opens NIFly after Face ID.

• How do I get a refund?

  Purchases are handled by Apple. Ask at reportaproblem.apple.com.

• Which iPhones does it need?

  An iPhone with iOS 27 or later.
