I'd almost completely forgotten Apple tried to push their iBeacon standard, arguably in competition to NFC in many ways. If I'm honest, my expectations for NFC lighting the world on fire with iOS support have been severely tempered by the huge number of articles/businesses/startups that proclaimed iBeacons where the next big thing. I've still never encountered them in the wild outside of Apple stores or friends who bought iBeacon hardware for hacking personal projects. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBeacon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBeacon
