    Hello, I noticed that couple of apps using NFC can launch Bing Vision, Brightness settings and much more that is not officially listed and supported by Microsoft. URI schemes for launching built-in apps for Windows Phone 8

    Unfortunately I don't have NFC tags so I cannot test it. Does anyone here have an idea how this could be done, if at all? I don't remember single app for shortcut tiles that could launch Bing Vision for example. Could it be specific to NFC somehow?

    I would imagine it is some kind of workaround, using the application GUID rather than using conventional means.
