Hi there Bobqat,


It's normal for your iPhone to get warm in certain situations. Considering you recently completed an iOS update, that could be related since information and data is most likely reindexing after the update. Did you have a chance to look at the information from the article viewed before posting to learn why your iPhone may become warm? Here's the information for you again:


You might notice that your device feels warmer when you:
* Set up your device the first time
* Restore from a backup
* Wirelessly charge your device
* Use graphics-intensive or processor-intensive apps, games, or features, including augmented-reality apps
* Stream high-quality video

These conditions are normal, and your device will return to a regular temperature when the process is complete or when you finish your activity. If your device doesn't display a temperature warning, you can keep using your device.
