iPhones can overheat when exposed to direct sunlight or heavy usage during hot summer days. Overheating affects performance, battery life, and may temporarily disable features. Here’s how to prevent it.
Avoid leaving your iPhone on dashboards, beach chairs, or in cars under the sun.
Use a shade, umbrella, or hat when using it outdoors.
Avoid gaming, GPS navigation, or video streaming for extended periods in hot environments.
Close background apps consuming high processing power.
Lower screen brightness: Settings → Display & Brightness → Reduce Brightness.
Go to Settings → Battery → Low Power Mode → On.
Low Power Mode reduces performance and background activity, helping keep the iPhone cooler.
Some cases trap heat. If your iPhone feels hot:
Remove the case while outdoors.
Make sure it has proper ventilation when charging or using heavy apps.
Disable Bluetooth, Location Services, and Wi-Fi when not needed.
Avoid charging while in direct sunlight, as heat combined with charging can cause overheating.
If your iPhone shows the temperature warning (screen turns black with a thermometer icon), immediately move it to a cool place, pause charging, and let it rest. Regularly practicing these tips during summer keeps your iPhone safe and performant.
