The following Knowledge Base article provides information iPhone acceptable operating temparatures:
Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures

When using the device or charging the battery, it is normal for it to get warm. The exterior of the device functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the device to the cooler air outside.
If you'd like to optimize your iOS device, this link proves to be a great resource to maximize battery life and usage:

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Sorry , I don't agree with your response.
I am using my phone at same temperature and location where I used before upgrade , how come it wasn't getting hot?
sometimes it's getting more hot now where I can't hold phone in hand and continue with call..
hope you ll get more complaints on this regard from others as well.
Thanks.
