iPhone 15 overheating after iOS 17.2 update

After updating my iPhone 15 to iOS 17.2 my iPhone is overheating in a way I’ve never seen before.


Also when plugged on my car. Quite abnormal to be honest.


I thought that the overheating issue was already resolved.



iPhone 15 Plus, iOS 17

Today I went back to the Apple Store about this issue. They restore the phone on the computer. They believe it would help the problem. I told them they done this before. They didn’t care I told them other people complaining about how their phone is over heating. I told them I am scared the phone would go on fire. They told me we replace the hardware of the phone. We need to see a fresh software and setup the phone as new. Would cause the phone to heat up. I was told it’s okay for the phone to feel warm. I’m like this is not warm. I didn’t pay 9 hundred dollars For a phone to heat up. As you can see the phone still doing the same thing. They telling me to give it two days to balance out the temperature of the phone. I came home to charge the phone with fresh software and still doing the same thing.

First time it has happened to me -- today April 23, 2024.


Phone was not charging, I was just using it doing nothing particularly memorable. I think I was just reading a Slack thread. I'm connected to home wifi.


iPhone 15 Pro running iOS 17.4.1


I completely shut phone off, waited for it to return to a regular temperature, and then turned it back on again. Seems everything is back to normal again since it started back up.

I see, I’m not the only one with this issue. Exactly what you said, it get hot on the screen around volume buttons location. Top left corner of the screen.


I have 15 plus, I’m not an active phone user. For 10h a day it just sit on the desk. When at the gym or walk I listen to audiobooks, but recently after few min of vido call my battery drained down 15%. I didn’t have this issue before, and I only charge phone to 80% to extend the battery life. Phone should not get this hot by just using it for few minutes even by just watching wideo and not holding it in hand it get noticeable HOT.
