iPhone 16 pro constantly warm to the touch

Had my iPhone 16 Pro for about 3-4 days now. It’s constantly warm on the back (mostly in the middle) for me it was Snapchat. After I deleted Snapchat to see if it still was hot. It got to normal temperature. Hope Apple or Snapchat Rolls out an Update asap!

iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18

It might not be Snapchat because I found out it’s still getting warm. I wouldn’t call it overheating. But constant warm to the touch. Super annoying.

Also keep in mind that for the first few days a brand new iPhone is indexing millions of bytes of data, while you're also using the phone for for other things. Once the indexing is complete. Other things which can make a phone run warm would be cellular connectivity. If you happen to be in a location with lower cellular signal, the phone can be working hard to maintain connectivity. Make sure in Settings > Cellular > Data Options, you have it set to 5G Auto.
