Add NFC tap tips to app directly #39

I've found myself telling people this anyways so may as well put it as in-app education:

  • Align the center of the BuzzCard over the NFC on your phone. If you don't know where the NFC sensor is, search " nfc sensor location" using your preferred search enginer
  • You'll probably have to fiddle a little bit to find the best spot
  • If you have a particularly thick case or your phone isn't recognizing BuzzCards (usually it should vibrate) at all, try removing your case
  • Sometimes someone forgets their BuzzCard or one just won't scan. You can use the Enter GTID manually button and type in their GTID to take their attendance.

I also like Capital One's mobile app simpler phrasing for this, which is essentially tap your card to the back of the phone, and if nothing happens, try again in a different spot.
