Battery and heating issue with ios 17.4.1

After updating to iOS 17.4.1 ota, my iPhone 15 which I have bought recently started to overheat unnecessarily (even when I am not using it significantly). Also battery life dropped from about 10 hrs to 6.5 hrs.

Is this happening with anyone else?

Should I update my iPhone via iTunes to re released ios 17.4.1?

Are there any consequences of that? Please help.

iPhone 15, iOS 17

Same issue here. Never overheated and 17.4.1 started to overheat with minimal usage.

15 pro here, before 17.4.1 the battery performance was excellent. Now, I can’t even use Firefox, the phone just starts overheating and too hot to hold. I have noticed charging is getting slower too. It used to be a fast charging. On top of that, sometimes I put my hand at the back of the phone, just feel where the cameras are getting hotter. It really annoys me, as I only got this phone for two months. My is build on 21E36, what are yours? Anyone knows how to reverse please?

IPhone 15 Pro Max here, I have not experienced any overheating since I got the phone in October…from any update & now my phone won't stop overheating, I can't be OTP and do another task now without overheating...My battery has dropped a lot since I updated it's a 92 & it was around 97-98 beforehand my charge etc is sucky now also…


I have automatic updates on and work overnight so it rarely has time to update since it updates at night, and one day with in the past two weeks it updated…and I've been suffering…I just had to hang up a couple minutes before this and take off my case just so Itll cool off….


I wake up and it's overheating
