Iphone give high temp warning as long as safari is active

Temp warning continously. Very annoying.

Tried restart several times but warning still appears unexpectedly.

Apparently false because phone doesn’t feel warm at all.

My latest trick to make phone work is to close all tabs i safari and close that app.

That seems to work for now.

How many Safari tabs do you have open usually? Each Safari tab takes up a fixed piece of your iPhone’s RAM, so the more you have, the less RAM your iPhone has to work with for other tasks, which can cause it to overheat. Great idea in closing all your tabs, and try to keep that number minimally.

Tnx for answer.

Yes of course.

I’m aware of such things.

But the phone isn't really overheating. It looks more like some kind of IOS-bug i.e battery- /processor-security kind of…

The behavior is quite weird.

I’ve used Iphones from the very beginning, never with such bad experience.

If the ”Safari trick” seems help I’ll try go for another browser.

And of course… Skipping the Iphone are also on my mind nowadays :(
