Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for connecting, selecting, and/or transferring data files among near field communication (NFC) enabled devices. An initial communication link may be established. A subsequent communication link may be established through an exchange of data communicated over the initial communication link. A data file may be provided facilitating a retrieval and rendering of a first device icon and a second device icon. The first device icon and the second device icon are utilized to transfer one or more selected files over the subsequent communication link.
