IPhone 12 Pro overheated iOS 15.0.1

Since updating an iPhone 12 Pro first to iOS 15.0 then iOS 15.0.1 the phone has continued to overheat, to the point where it will crash while playing a simple word game for a few minutes. It has been some time since I updated the iOS so it isn’t due to re-indexing photos or whatever. This phone never had this issue prior to iOS 15 - any ideas?

Hey there nick_from_Ojai!


From what we gather you've noticed temperature related issues while using your iPhone 12 Pro.


Please keep in mind your device might get warm under certain conditions. This includes using graphic-intensive or augmented-reality apps or features. With that being said if this seems to occur while using specific apps, you can try isolating the issue to the apps. You can do this by updating the apps or reinstalling the apps to see if that helps. Take a look at the steps below and keep us updated.


Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures

If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open


Warm regards.
