Apple on Saturday said it has identified a few issues that can cause new iPhones to run hotter than expected, including a bug in the IOS 17 software which will be fixed in a coming update.
The company said that the new phones may feel warmer in the first few days “after setting up or restoring the device because of increased background activity” following complaints from some consumers.
“Another issue involves some recent updates to third-party apps that are causing them to overload the system,”. Apple said it is working with app developers on fixes that are in the process of being rolled out.
The third-party apps causing the issue include the game Asphalt 9, Meta's Instagram, and Uber.
Instagram already fixed the issue with its app on September 27.
The coming IOS 17 bug fix will not reduce performance to address the iPhone's temperature.
The company said that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max do not suffer from overheating due to the design, but rather the new titanium shells.
Apple also said the issue is not a safety or injury risk, and will not affect the phone's long-term performance.

Points to remember

- Listen actively without interrupting
- Avoid assumptions, seek understanding, ask questions
Day 4, Dubai Test: At a glance
Moment of the day Lahiru Gamage appeared to have been hard done by when he had his dismissal of Sami Aslam chalked off for a no-ball. Replays suggested he had not overstepped. No matter. Two balls later, the exact same combination – Gamage the bowler and Kusal Mendis at second slip – combined again to send Aslam back.
Stat of the day Haris Sohail took three wickets for one run in the only over he bowled, to end the Sri Lanka second innings in a hurry. That was as many as he had managed in total in his 10-year, 58-match first-class career to date. It was also the first time a bowler had taken three wickets having bowled just one over in an innings in Tests.
The verdict Just 119 more and with five wickets remaining seems like a perfectly attainable target for Pakistan. Factor in the fact the pitch is worn, is turning prodigiously, and that Sri Lanka’s seam bowlers have also been finding the strip to their liking, it is apparent the task is still a tough one. Still, though, thanks to Asad Shafiq and Sarfraz Ahmed, it is possible.
