To keep your phone from overheating, it's key to manage its usage carefully, particularly during hot weather. Steer clear of putting your device in direct sunlight for long periods, because the heat from the environment will skyrocket its internal temperature in no time. Turn off running apps that are in the background and you are not actively using since they can make the battery juice and heat the phone. Do not play games that require much graphics or record long videos if the phone is already warm because these tasks can make the processor and the battery suffer. Moreover, you can turn on the battery saver mode to decrease the performance requirement and also minimize the screen brightness to lower the strain on the display and the battery. If you see that the device is heating up beyond what you are used to, it would be best to charge without a phone case as the latter can trap heat and hinder the cooling of the device. Avoid charging your device under or over some surface that has pillows or is softer than necessary as this may block the ventilation. One of the lamest tasks that you can do to your device in an attempt to get signal is to use the airplane mode when signal is weak since this case will cause the battery to use up more power searching for the network hence more heat. Also, keep your software up to date as manufacturers usually fix bugs and make improvements in the phone's performance to reduce overheating issues in their updates. Also, give an absolute no to non-certified or damaged charging cables and power adapters because the bad flow of power from them will not only heat up your phone but will result in the permanent damage of the battery. Lastly, take some rest when your phone becomes too warm; more often than not, giving it a rest is one of the simplest and most effective ways to cool it down without any glitches.

Man, you nailed it—phone overheating is just straight-up annoying, especially once summer hits. I mean, you ever pick up your phone and it’s hotter than a jalapeño on a dashboard? Ugh. Anyway, you brought up some solid points already, but let me ramble a bit about what really helps in keeping your phone from turning into a pocket furnace.

Keeping Your Phone from Melting (Well, Not Literally, But Still)

Let’s be real: we’re glued to our phones. Scrolling, gaming, doomscrolling some more, snapping a thousand pics of a vaguely pretty sunset—it’s a lot. Thing is, these little suckers overheat way easier than you think. And yeah, you don’t need an engineering degree to keep things chill. Mostly comes down to not doing dumb stuff (which, ironically, most of us do by accident).

1. Don’t Bake It in the Sun, Genius

I know, sounds obvious, but people always leave their phone roasting on a car seat or the beach towel. Those things turn into mini ovens, and your poor phone’s squishy innards just can’t deal. It’s not just about frying the outside, either—the insides start going nuts, the battery freaks out, and before you know it, performance tanks or you’re staring at a black screen.

2. Close Those Zombie Apps

You ever look at your phone and realize there’s like 19 apps hiding in the background for no reason? All that sneaky app-spying uses up juice and cooks your phone. Swipe 'em away before you pocket your phone, especially crazy energy-hogs like Maps or video apps. Battery happy, phone cool. Win.

3. Chill on the Brightness—Literally

Blast that screen at max brightness all day and your phone’s gonna sweat. Battery Saver isn’t just for when the % drops into the red zone, either—turn it on to lighten your processor’s load. Your eyes will thank you too (unless you like a bright flashlight aimed at your retinas, in which case, live your truth).

4. Don’t Make Your Phone Lift Weights When It’s Already Sweaty

If your phone feels hot, don’t hit it with a three-hour gaming session. No 4K home movies, no mega-multitasking. Let the poor thing recover instead of piling on more work. You don’t go for a run in the desert when you’re already dehydrated, right? (Okay, maybe you do, in which case you probably also microwave your phone for fun.)

5. Cases: Good for Drops, Bad for Heat

Your chunky phone case? Yeah, it keeps your phone safe when you drop it jogging, but it traps heat like a winter coat in July. Especially charging? Pop that sucker off or prop your phone on something hard (not your bedsheets—speaking from crispy-warm experience).

6. Don’t Cheap Out on Chargers

Those sketchy gas station chargers... yeah, bad idea. They mess with your battery and heat your phone faster than you can say “warranty voided.” Stick to the legit stuff, please.

7. Signal Hunting = Heat

When your phone’s desperately searching for a signal in the middle of nowhere, it works overtime and gets all toasty. Not using it? Airplane mode! Seriously, stop letting it play hide-n-seek with cell towers.

8. Give Your Phone a Time Out

Honestly, sometimes just TURN IT OFF. Wild idea, I know. But if your phone feels like it’s about to combust, a couple minutes of downtime goes a long way. It deserves a nap just as much as you do. (Probably more.)

End of the day, this thing’s more than a fancy camera. It’s basically a tiny nervous computer in your pocket. Treat it nice, and you'll get fewer meltdowns—in every sense. Trust me, your group chat drama is way less fun when your phone is too hot to handle.

I've discovered the hard way that my phone isn't very good at withstanding heat, especially in the summer. I now turn off any apps I'm not using and stay out of direct sunlight. I turn on battery saver mode to lighten the load and stop gaming or making lengthy videos if it starts to get warm. Additionally, I no longer charge it while wearing the case, especially when it's already hot. I only use authorized chargers and make sure to update my software on a regular basis. In any case, when does it begin to overheat? I simply let it rest. Although it's a straightforward solution, it truly does work. I think I've saved my phone a great deal of stress by giving it a break.
