Is your iPhone Heating while in CarPlay with Pioneer stereo?

I could use the phone as a skillet… gets so hot while using CapPlay. Maps suddenly will not re-load and has caused quite an issue while traveling. Also GPS doesn’t know where I am. Anyone else having this issue?

it’s been a real safety issue for me.

iPhone 7 Plus, 14

14 pro Max overheating during Google map usage I was an iphone 12 pro max user. I've been using iphone 14 pro max for 1 week. My first detection is when using carplay and google maps, I have a heating problem and fast battery drain. I talked to apple support teams and they did all the checks and was told there was no problem. This problem, which I did not experience in 12 pro max, is annoying.

iPhone overheating when using GPS while charging I've been using Navigation software on my iPhone Xs for many years (not CarPlay) and because this drains the battery "somewhat", I have it on charging, while driving in my car. This worked fine until a couple of months ago: the iPhone crashes while using the navigation software (doesn't matter which one: google maps/Sygic/Apple). Normally I have it in a holder on the front windscreen. Fortunately I was able to hang the phone in front of the airco outlet of the car, which kept it a lot cooler (but still warm), but it wouldn't charge. Also, my wife has the same type of iPhone and has the same issue. I really think it is related to the latest IOS verion (v16.*). Can this be fixed by Apple please!?
