14Pro overheats when using Apple maps

While using Apple Maps, my 14Pro seriously over heats. To the point that it rapidly drains the battery. When I attempt to charge it, it shows charging paused until it returns to normal.

Any suggestions?

Hi sixtywhiskers,


If charging wirelessly, try charging with a cable while using navigation.


If you've reviewed the guidance provided in the previous post, are still unable to charge your device while using Maps due to a temperature alert, we recommending contacting Apple Support for additional assistance. They will have the tools and resources needed to investigate and assist further.

Hey there sixtywhiskers,


We understand you've noticed that your iPhone 14 Pro heats up when using Apple Maps. We'd be happy to provide information to help you address this.


When using Maps are you placing your iPhone somewhere where it is exposed to the sun? It's possible that this is causing the extra heat. This article provides information about what to do when your iPhone gets too hot:

Greetings:

The phone is not placed in an area exposed to the sun. I am using a new apple usbc to lightening cable. I also tried and new apple usb a to lightening cable in different vehicles. I also tried using it without the cable connected. It still heats up. This issue causes it to discharge at a much faster rate. It doesn't just get warm, it gets really hot to the touch. No other apps are running when this happens.

Cheers
