NFC Launchit can program useful actions on compatible NFC tags.
 
Supported actions are categorized into two sections 'System Apps' and 'Popular Apps'.  The list of supported actions is huge and includes changing system settings, calling phone numbers, and launching one of over a hundred apps from the marketplace.

The use cases for this are almost limitless.  Write a tag with directions to your home and stick it in the car for quick directions. Use a tag with Bluetooth settings to change Bluetooth settings or give your toddler a tag with her favorite game so that she can launch it easily. If you can't find your favorite App in the Popular Apps list, use the in app "Email feedback" button and send me the App name.

    Good app the app launcher is nice for starting my navigation and Pandora. I played around with a few of the system tags but couldn't find anything useful to launch with them. I had to download 5 NFC apps to be able to write tags for specific Bluetooth devices, url's so far they have all worked well but adding all these features in one app would be optimal.

    Great app! The developer is very responsive, within just a couple of days he added an app I requested to the list of programs commands!
