Overheating issues on iOS 13.5

Thanks for the warning about it losing the water tightness. I’m going to replace my phone whatever happens, but I’d rather not break it more.

I'm going to take mine in anyway and demonstrate it heating up in front of them within a minute, then they can’t deny it is happening.

I'm actually running iOS14 Beta 3 at the moment and it still gets warm just under the camera lens. I haven't experienced it becoming too hot to hold, yet but it's still not right. My sons new SE2 which I may he watches Netflix on never gets warm so there I am, the proud owner of an XS with most features disabled - Siri - forget using YouTube, Twitter or even Safari etc and stay away from Apple News, too processor dependant.

This seems to be an Apple strategy to push you to change to their latest phones. I am still experiencing the problem even on simple phone usage. It gets overheated to a level where I become unable to touch the phone from heat.

Apple; this is not acceptable! Allow SW downgrade or solve the problem.

I have the same overheating issue on iPhone 8 though there are others who posted here have similar issue on iphone 11. . I thought it is a genuine flaws of Apple or an overlook.... as the overheating is likely to push loyal customers away if they upgrade their handset since no one can use an overheating phone....

I called Apple support and it was essential useless. Had me rest a bunch of stuff and run a phone diagnostic. Nothing showed. Said I can pay to send my phone in and if it needs a repair I have to pay. Because according to them it’s not an Apple problem and apparently my iPhone X is already outdated.

So one of my friends is experiencing the same problem on an XR - runs hot and no battery life. She took it in to the Apple Store. This time Apple tried to blame her Otterbox case, saying it's not an Apple case so they can't be held responsible. Apple is coaching their service techs to give all these canned answers, which are getting more ridiculous as more people seem to be affected. You have to wonder how many phones are really affected! Is it so many phones that a company as rich as Apple can't afford to do the right thing and replace them? Or is it just that the financial guys have realized they can get away with anything and people will keep buying their products? Given that the latest iOS update didn't seem to help, one has to assume that the damage to the phone is physical and non-repairable, rather than just the usual iOS glitch. I've decided to try to sell mine and will have to decide on which way to go with the replacement.

I’ve had the problem ever since 13.5. I’m running a Beta version or iOS14 now, what have I got to loose. It still gets warm with simple tasks and it’s random with it. I hear people with 11Pros also experience the problem too. The problem is where do you go from here. Apple know an iPhone user is unlikely to jump to Android.

My phone is overheating as well. I have already replaced one because the side of the phone showed that it was so hot it discolored the casing. This is a dangerous situation. Be aware when phones get hot they can also catch on fire. I think there is something wrong with their batteries. I want a solution or we need to make them find one. I get nervous when my phone is so hot I can’t carry it.

That is when it started over heating in my new phone too. I have replaced my other 11 because it was basically heating so bad it was burning the phone. This one is also over heating but only after I installed the latest updat.e13.5.

Same here. I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max. After the update (13.5): my phone just gets really hot. Yesterday I couldnt even use it anymore, because the warning-notification showed up.

Same here. Before the update it was fine, but now the heat is abnormal & the battery level is losing very quickly

Same here with my XS max , and my wife 11pro, just after the IOS 13.5 update, normal browsing, snap chat talking etc will trigger the heat, and it becomes really hot!

I strongly believe that This problem is not due to ambient temperature and I hope it’s because of iOS .. even this continues since iOS 13.4.1.... onwards..

Best of luck....

i have tried all suggestions suggested by apple. But my problems doesn’t exist.

Even I tried with apple authorised service centre and formatted my iPhone fully but no use.
