iPad Air 5 heating up while using Notes with Apple pencil

This issue specifically happens when using Notes app + Apple pencil. The right side of the device heats up, probably where the M1 chip is located. It is not present when using any other app with Apple pencil like Goodnotes and also is not present if you just normally use Notes app without apple pencil. This issue has been raised many times over the last few years. Can anyone explain why Apple has not fixed this issue, considering its the built-in Notes app?


I have tried restarting but the issue remains. Would like to know if anyone has any recommendations to fix this since I like using the stock Notes app that comes with the iPad.

iPad Air, iPadOS 16
