iPhone 16 Pro Max overheating issue while using FaceTime

FaceTime is very battery intensive, so it is normal for the phone to heat up when the battery is working harder. But overheating is an overused word. Your phone would only be overheating if you see a thermometer on the screen with a warning the phone has to cool down before you can use it again. If you aren't seeing that, your iPhone is NOT overheating.

What just happened?

You said it just feels hot to touch. Here’s my response:

Thanks. So while you don’t see a pop up notification regarding your device over heating, you really don’t have anything to be concerned about. Your iPhone has built in temperature sensors which will protect it from over heating, to the point of shutting it off if it gets too hot.

Hello!

Do you see a pop up notification telling you the iPhone is overheating, or does it just feel hot to touch?
