My iPhone 13 Pro Max Screen turns pink(crashes) and restarts, when it's cold outside(aprox. 0 Celsius)

I use an iPhone 13 Pro Max for a month. Every single time when I go outside and the tempreture is below 0 Celsius the screen turns pink and the phone randomly crashes, then automatically restarts. But after the restart if I try to use my phone, it does the same thing. So I can't use my phone outside. :(

Can you help me? What can I do with this thing?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

It is too cold. From the technical specs:


Environmental Requirements 

  • Operating ambient temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
  • Nonoperating temperature: −4° to 113° F (−20° to 45° C)
  • Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing
  • Operating altitude: tested up to 10,000 feet (3000 m)


There some cold-weather cases I have heard of that allow you to activate in very cold environment, though I do not know the name of it.

The camera on my iPhone8 can malfunction at 115 degrees F during the summer. These are not military-grade combat-ready phones, just commercial-grade phones with touchscreens and complex iOS.


I advice that you DO NOT continue pushing the limits ... glass of any variety gets brittle at 32 F and you can physically harm your phone.
