Should you turn off NFC?

Is the NFC in my iPhone draining my battery.

The simple answer is no, you don't need to turn off NFC unless you have specific reasons. NFC uses very little power, so it won’t significantly drain your battery when not in use. And the security risks are minimal since NFC requires close proximity (a few centimeters) to be activated, making it difficult for unauthorized access.
