I've noticed my iPhone's battery health has dropped to 80%, and I'm curious if topping up the charge multiple times throughout the day is detrimental to the battery. I want to make sure I'm not damaging it further while trying to keep it functional. Any thoughts on this?

Honestly, topping up your battery isn't a big deal. Most people say that charging whenever you need to won't significantly affect battery health, especially since yours is already at 80%.
At 80% battery health, it might be a good idea to look into a replacement. Apple usually recommends replacing it once it dips below 80%, but if topping up helps you keep using your phone comfortably, go for it!
It's true that charging is most stressful at very low or high levels, but topping up during the day when you're at 80% won't do much harm. If you're facing battery issues, consider a replacement down the line.
Charging habits matter less when your battery is already worn out. I would be charging several times a day at that level. Just keep using it till you feel it's too annoying—then get it replaced if you can.
Yeah, don't stress about it. As long as you need to charge, just do it.
