Your ACE Pro, CFS or other AMS can identify a spool the moment you load it, as long as the spool carries a tag. Tag My Spool writes that tag in seconds, so the printer sets material, colour and temperatures by itself. No menus, no typing, no mismatched profiles.

Everything a spool should say about itself.

Read a tag, write a tag, print the label. The rest of the app exists to make those three taps fast.

Writes the tags your printer already reads

Pick a protocol, fill the fields, tap Write. Five spool-tag formats across NTAG213/215/216, ICODE SLIX2 and MIFARE Classic 1K tags, including custom brands on the ACE Pro.

Thousands of filaments, already typed in

Search the Open Filament Database by brand, type and sub-type, then import a profile into your tag in one tap.

Your whole shelf, offline and backed up

Save tags as presets, sync through iCloud, export everything as JSON. No account, no cloud subscription, no tracking.

    Great and useful tool

    “I like the tool and it helps me to make things easier, because I change my filaments very often.”

    Best app for managing NFC tags

    “The built-in filament library makes updating information quick and painless. It keeps getting better with each update.”

    Great help with inventory

    “Instead of tracking every spool in a spreadsheet, the information lives on the tag itself. Well worth the one-time investment.”

    “I can slap a $0.10 RFID sticker on my existing spools and code them in 30 seconds.”

Which printers and tag formats does it support?

Anycubic ACE Pro (all fields, plus a way to match custom-brand filaments), Creality CFS, OpenSpool, OpenPrintTag and TigerTag.

What NFC tags should I buy?

It depends on the format. ACE Pro: NTAG213, NTAG215 or NTAG216. TigerTag: NTAG213. OpenSpool: NTAG215 or NTAG216 (its JSON needs the extra memory). OpenPrintTag: ICODE SLIX2 (NFC-V / ISO 15693). Creality CFS: MIFARE Classic 1K, written through an ACR1555U reader. If you only buy one kind, NTAG215 covers ACE Pro and OpenSpool. Stick it on any existing spool; no re-spooling needed.

How does Creality CFS writing work?

CFS spools use MIFARE Classic 1K tags, which iPhone NFC cannot write. Tag My Spool writes them through an external ACR1555U card reader paired with your iPhone. Materials sync from Creality or import from your printer’s file, and custom material IDs can be entered manually.

Is there a subscription?

No. Tag My Spool is a one-time $7.99 purchase on the App Store, works fully offline and supports Family Sharing.

What happens to my data?

Nothing leaves your devices except through your own iCloud. The App Store privacy label reads “Data Not Collected”, and you can export everything as JSON at any time.

Is there an Android version?

Yes. Tag My Spool is on Google Play for Android phones with NFC. Scan the Android QR code below or use the Google Play button.
