I have same problem, nothing changed in my usage. The STOCK template answer is always about ambient temps, don't leave your phone in car etc. NOT! Same use, update, all of a sudden phone warms up enough in the Air Conditioned house I don't leave that much, using same apps and doing same things. The warmth quickly noted even through the leather case. I have always used.

This is a BS answer bc I’ve checked ALL OF MY APPS

it’s this update ... APPLE fix this

I use my phone for working from home and I have to leave it plugged in ALL day

just sitting idle with nothing running and it goes dead in less than 6 hours

ridiculous

you won’t force me to buy a new Apple but I will switch to an android if you don’t fix this crap

unreal in this lockdown you would push this mess on people when they need their phone and other devices the most
