Since we are in the summer and the heat is at its most intense, that could lead Expose the iPhone or any other phone to this temperature To destroy the internal components, the most important of which is the battery or external parts such as the screen. It is true that the iPhone will shutdown on its own if it is exposed to a high temperature for a long time as a self-protection measure, but this does not prevent problems such as damage to the battery, especially if this happens several times. Here are 7 ways to prevent heat from damaging your iPhone or phone.
Good ventilation and not using a phone cover
IPhone covers prevent heat dissipation from the iPhone to the air or at least work to hinder it, so if your phone is exposed to heat, you have to remove the cover until the heat is dissipated, and it is better to remove it completely in such hot climates, especially if you are going to spend most of your day outside The house. And if you don't prefer this option, then you should at least get covers that are designed to help dissipate the heat.
Use airplane mode often
Airplane mode is a good way to dissipate phone heat quickly. You can activate it directly from the control panel, so GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and cellular data connections will be turned off at once. These things are considered as a constant drain on the battery and a constant source of heat generation for the iPhone, and this is of course through the processor that works on them.
Stop playing games on the hot phone
Today's mobile games represent a great pressure on the processors in phones, and thus generate more heat and continuous gameplay, which is the most thing that causes the phone to overheat than anything else on it. By combining the heat generated by the processors due to gaming and the weather, this is sure to destroy your phone or at least quickly damage the battery. Stop playing until the phone cools down, then try playing in air-conditioned conditions or in the shade and outdoors without a phone cover.
Also, never use the phone while charging, as this has an effect on overheating the phone and damaging its components. As well as quickly damaging the charging port and charger due to the constant movement of the charger wire while using the phone, and this works to dismantle or break the connection legs.
And by referring to technicians specialized in phone maintenance, it was found that the increase in the phone temperature due to the weather or due to a defect in one of the components of the motherboard negatively affects the battery and then damages it, and this is a major reason for its swelling as well.
Close applications
When you have apps open, many of them can still collect data in the background, like Facebook and Maps for example. This can generate unnecessary heat that all iPhone components have to deal with. So, keeping these apps closed can help your phone stay safe from overheating and heat.
When you are finished using a specific application, make sure to close it completely. Close any apps that may be using location services, including Google Maps, after you are done using them.
Clarification: This advice is more suitable for Android phones, as iOS prevents applications from continuing to work in the background except for specific tasks; But in general, you should pay attention to applications in the background, especially maps and navigation, so you may do navigation for a specific place, and here iOS will allow the application to work; But if you're done pause the app and navigation to save your device's heat and of course the battery.
Do not place your phone in hot places
Leaving your phone in your car, for example, is completely unpopular, so you should pay attention to that. Also, avoid keeping your phone in a bag or box, if it will be exposed to the scorching rays of the summer for a while. Also, do not put the phone under your pillow while you sleep, try to get rid of this habit.
Do not combine your phone with other electronic devices
All your devices generate heat and even after turning off it takes time to cool down, and we do not want to make matters worse, so do not put your phone on top of a MacBook, for example, or a laptop, you should get rid of this habit as well. When putting electronic devices in a backpack, for example, do not put them next to each other, but keep them separate from each other.
Keep your phone out of the sun, and do not put it in the freezer
Keep your phone in the shade as much as possible, and use it less when you are in the sun (on beaches or swimming pools, for example). And if the iPhone shuts down and you are alerted and warn about the temperature, turn it off immediately to help it cool down as quickly as possible.
Also, never put your phone in the fridge or freezer. You might think of this solution, and it is a good idea when the phone is exposed to heat, but be aware that cold temperatures can damage the battery as well, and rapid temperature fluctuations can lead to rapid damage.

I live in a tent and the weather is very hot, in summer I wet a soft piece of cloth with water and cover the cellphone from below and above and expose it to the floor fan, it cools quickly and the charging speed improves as well
I used the methods and tips and I still suffer from very high temperature while charging the phone, although I make sure to use the original charger
This happened to me a week ago, the phone was on the car while I was walking and the weather was very hot until the iPhone alerted me that the temperature exceeded the permissible, so I immediately switched off the operation until it returned to his habit
I put it on the unfurnished tiles of the room, as it is usually kind of cold
I always restart it when it gets hot, which helps in getting the temperature down temporarily
Peace, mercy and blessings of God.
May Allah reward you with good for the beautiful information.
I have an 80% cell phone battery, does it need a change?
Thanks for the information, and you have noticed that if the phone gets hot, the screen brightness decreases a little, even under the sun
The best is not to use the device while charging, especially in the field of navigation
Is there a way to close all applications on the iPhone in one step, or should each application be closed separately?
Thank you for this valuable information
Thank you .. It was exposed in the car to the sun. For the first time I saw this warning, so I put it at the air-conditioner’s mouth, after about a quarter of an hour.
Thanks for the helpful information. I thought it was just my problem
If the car or house warms up, it is closer to air conditioning for some minutes
On the day I put my cell phone in the bag and it sat in a hot grilling area for an hour, and when I returned to it, I found a message from the mobile that the device is very hot and must be cooled before using it. What I think is the reason is the place because it is not very hot! I expect that the camera opened by mistake while I put him in the bag, because this movement repeats a lot, always opening the camera by mistake, and many people I know suffer from the same problem! Do you know a solution to it?
As for me, most of the times that the device overheats at the time of filming
But everything that heats up should be washed with water! Note the iPhone is watertight
The correction is waterproof, not against water, and there is a difference between the two. Look for it and you will know and do not advise you to repeat this method because it is wrong and it is possible to damage the device over time
Thank you. I used to hang up the phone when it was hot 😅
Thank you Mr. Mahmoud. Usually heavy use when we are at home, and external use is mostly following up on messages and calls. I rarely use the phone while I am outside. Basically, our temperature in the UAE is not rivaled in intensity except by Hell in intensity in 6, 7 and 8 months, so the owner is the same Hold your device, because your goal is to move from place to place, just click
Thank you very much for this useful information, may God grant you success 🤲
Because of the high temperature of the iPhone X with continuous use and during the game the battery swelled and the screen disconnected slightly for me a month ago and I contacted Apple and the iPhone was changed with a new one and I paid a small fee 😃
Lucky for those whose battery is swollen, Apple is in this matter of changing the device immediately.
Thanks ... for reminding us

I forgot that using the wire is connected, it increases the friction of the battery, and it gets hot.

A very useful topic, may God reward you with good. A sentence that you do not put in the freezer made me laugh
God reward you
Many times when I am in the car, the screen begins to decrease the brightness and feel a rise in temperature accompanied by slow operation of the device, which forces me to place it in front of the car air conditioner for a while. Previously, I thought that the problem was with my phone, because other brands don't have that. My phone is Iphone X
My device gets too hot sometimes
This forces me at times to put it in front of the air conditioner to cool down, and of course I remove the cover from it
But sometimes it doesn't crash
Gives you wellness 😊👌🏻
