According to Apple, iPhones are designed to work in ambient temperatures between 0 degrees to 35 degrees. If operated outside this temperature range, it could damage the device or compromise battery life.
The first step is to keep your Apple device away from direct sunlight. Summer heat can be severe and cause permanent damage to our phones. Bring the iPhone indoors and allow it to come to a normal temperature.
Give your iPhone a break. Putting it aside for some time till it returns to its normal temperature could be one of the best ways to cool it down. Turn off all the apps running in the background and let your iPhone rest for some time.
Putting your iPhone on Airplane mode can help it cool down. Do this especially when you’re in a low-signal area. Turning on Airplane modes not only cools down the device but also enhances the battery life.
Everyone uses phone cases to protect their phones or to make them look stylish. But cases, particularly those made of insulating materials can significantly reduce the dispersion of heat from the device. In case of overheating, remove your cases and let them return to their normal temperature.
Updating your iPhone regularly might protect it from overheating. Keeping your iPhone and all the apps updated will help the device function smoothly and consume the least energy.
