Some activities such as charging or a lot of computational activity (e.g., video), generate heat. Some warmth is to be anticipated.* Read this article about keeping your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures - If your iPhone or iPad gets too hot or too cold - Apple Support
Changes in software such as upgrades may introduce new features which may add to power drain and heat generation. Check the Battery Health feature to see if there are apps running that use a lot of power. If there are, decide if you need them running all the time or can turn off a service when an app is in the background.
