iPhone 11 supports background reading of NFC, so you don't have to enable it, it is always running in the background and doesn't use much power.


NFC can be used to read tags and for Apple Pay. To use, make sure your iPhone is unlocked, and then tap the top of your iPhone's back on the tag to get a pop-up.


Unfortunately, it seems NFC on iPhone cannot be used to connect to bluetooth, so you cannot use NFC to connect to a bluetooth device.
