01Three problems, three checks
| Problem | Where to look first | The battery? |
|---|---|---|
| Battery drains quickly | App usage in Settings › Battery | Possibly, if apps look normal and Battery Health is low |
| Unexpected shutdowns | Settings › Battery › Battery Health | Very likely, if there is a performance management message |
| Overheating while charging | Case, surroundings, adapter and cable | If these are fine, it should be checked |
Menu names can vary with the iOS version.
02Overheating while charging
Getting a little warm while charging is normal. If the phone gets too hot to hold:
- Remove the case. A thick case makes it harder for heat to escape.
- Change the surroundings. Do not charge in the sun or on a pillow or blanket.
- Avoid heavy use while charging. Games, video and navigation add heat.
- Try another adapter and cable. Test with a sound, compatible adapter.
When an iPhone gets too warm, it can pause or limit charging to protect itself; charging resumes once it cools down.
