Many iPhone users complained that after upgrading to any system, especially the latest iOS 14.6, they began to feel that their devices overheated and the battery ran out within a few hours of little use and sometimes when not in use. There is a lot of talk about this on the web. And at Apple's support forum.

The iPhone heats up when upgrading.. What is the problem and what should you do?

IPhone

I'm not an expert, but without having to see the iPhone or even touch it, I can tell you that the problem is either that the iPhone operating system iOS is doing something that consumes a lot of battery power, which in turn causes the device to overheat, or that one of the applications may It got out of control and is the cause of the problem that leads to overheating of the iPhone.

It seems from user comments so far, that the reason has not yet been confirmed, whether the operating system or an application, and until it is discovered which of the two reasons is doing this to the iPhone, here is the first thing you have to do.

Device cooling

Do not try to wait too long to find out the reason, because the continued high temperature of the iPhone may lead to damage such as damage to the battery or other internal things to the device as well as performance problems and this is what you do not want, of course.

Since we are now living in summer days where the heat and humidity are also high, you need to keep your iPhone away from any surface or place with a high temperature such as the car. I also recommend taking the device out of the case or case because it may lead to an increase in the temperature of the iPhone. iPhone. If these procedures do not help you, turn off the phone. But never put it in the fridge because the extreme reverse heat does more damage.

Cause of the problem

As we said a while ago, there are two reasons but we don't know which one is the culprit so if an app is causing the problem, you can use the tools built into iOS to find out the problem.

Tap on Settings and go to Battery then scroll down a bit and you will see the battery usage data, tap on Show Activity and that will give you a list of apps running in the background.

 If you have an app that runs in the background and you don't use it, of course I don't mean the music app, the audiobook you always leave in the background, or the Google Maps running all the time, that means it's the culprit.

You can also click on the activity chart to see how long the app has been running during any one hour period of the day.

Also, you can use battery and tap Show activity to see how much battery the app has used up during a period, so if you have an app that runs all the time and consumes a lot of battery then you have found the culprit and of course you need to get rid of it quickly.

If one of the applications is not the cause and no application is eating up the battery power, then this means that there is a problem or an error in the iPhone system and here you need to try the simplest step by restarting the device and if it does not work, you will have to wait for a quick update from Apple to fix defect.

We recommend returning to our article last year, in which Apple explained a solution to those who face these problems after the upgrade, and you can find it in this link.

Note: When upgrading to a new iOS version there are a number of activities that need to be completed in the background even after the installation is finished, and it is preferable to wait XNUMX-XNUMX days before you are sure that there is indeed a problem with your device.
