Recently my iPhone 17 pro overheating during charging, playing game and unresponsiveness.

Are the games that are causing the heat issue the same games you were playing when there was not an issue? Are you charging while playing your games? Do your games require connection to the internet?

When you look at your battery information in Settings app what are the top 5 or 6 apps for battery consumption?

First, lets define overheating. When an iPhone overheats, it displays a graphic of a thermometer and says it can't be used until it cools. If you didn't see a thermometer, with that message, your iPhone didn't overheat.

It is possible you may have seen a message that charging was paused until the phone cools off. That is NOT overheating, but a new feature on iPhone, which when fast charging, charges the phone to 80%, then pauses. This is a new feature and again, is NOT an indication of overheating.

Now to the conditions you experienced. Charging an iPhone while playing a game makes the battery work harder. And when a battery works harder, it generates heat. This is called thermal exchange and is normal and not something you should be concerned about.

I didn’t see thermometer msg yet. But my concern is the phone used to remain cool but now it’s hotter than normal with the same condition.

and I am not playing game while charging, most case I don’t use the phone while charging as it effect the battery for long run. My phone charging limit is 80%.

OK. But playing games is one of the most battery intensive activities you can do on an cellphone. So when playing games the battery MUST work harder and when a battery works harder, it generates heat naturally. If you're not seeing a thermometer, your phone isn't overheating.

Thank you, we appreciate the answers to our questions! Would you please answer the ones above too?
