If your iPhone 15 heats up during WhatsApp calls on iOS 18, first ensure both the app and iOS are updated to the latest versions. Restart the device, turn off Background App Refresh for WhatsApp, and avoid using the phone while charging, as this can increase heat. Also, check your battery health under Settings to rule out underlying issues. If the problem continues, it may be a software bug or hardware concern, so contacting Apple Support or visiting an Apple Store is recommended.
