USB cables

Note: copyright — do you have the right? Always follow the rules. See “Content Copyright” in the legal and safety information on your phone.

NFC (Moto G5 Plus only)

Near Field Communication technology lets you instantly share an item on your phone (such as a web link, contact or a photo) by touching the back of your phone to the back of another NFC-enabled device.

Note: NFC is not available in all areas or on all models.

Find it: swipe up > Settings > More > NFC

Share with Android Bem™

Use Android Beam to share content on your phone with another NFC-enabled phone or tablet.

Note: the other device must support NFC, too.

1 Open the screen that contains the item you want to

share.

2 Touch the back of your phone to the back of the other

device.

When the devices connect, you'll see Touch to beam on your phone.

3 Touch your screen to share the item.

Receive with NFC

Receive web links, e-coupons, brochures, maps and more from an NFC tag. Look for the NFC logo on posters, signs, store displays and other areas. Just touch the back of your phone to the logo to receive its tag information.

Bluetooth & Wi-Fi one-touch setup

Just touch your phone to an NFC-enabled Bluetooth device or Wi-Fi access point to automatically pair or connect with the device.

Mobile payment

You can use a secure payment app to pay for your purchase (where available and supported).

Look for the NFC logo to conﬁrm that you can make a mobile payment. Touch the back of your phone to the payment device to pay for your purchase. You may need to authenticate your purchase using your ﬁngerprint or passcode.

Security

Mobile payments, wireless connections and content sharing all demand security:

• Range: NFC only works over a short range (about 4cm/1.5 inches), so it’s unlikely you’ll connect by mistake – if you did, you would still have to accept the connection to send or receive information.

• Encryption: your phone uses the latest security, encryption and authentication features to protect your personal information for mobile payments and content sharing.
