Has anyone ever seen the iPhone Temperature warning?

[IIJBII]

I've seen it a few times on hot summer days. It's usually when I don't have the phone tucked away (like i should).

Guess I'm lucky then or some kinda cooler in my phone? If I say I've ever seen that message before then it's a big lie . I sometimes even leave it in the sun whiles playing football n never had that message yet. Will try next though lol

Never seen it

I have seen it while I am laying in the sun (I know it's bad for me) I am usually listening to music at the same time. Maybe the combo does it

I havent seen it for 3 years. lol

I feel like I've only seen it when it's at least 90 degrees outside

Just has it this weekend on the back porch. Relaxing outside for a few hours... Phone was hot as hell... So I guess we both got a bit sunburn.....

I do not recall ever seeing that particular warning -- At least not since the iPhone 4S....

This has been implemented since the original iPhone. Only time I saw it was on my 4S when I was in Las Vegas in July standing outside at a pool party. It was unbearable to even hold. Thing was hot as hell.

Actually this happened to me this morning,was listening to a podcast as I was walking for exercise.I generally walk 4 miles or more so I know approximately how far and how long it took before I got the message.I had my phone in my jacket pocket because it was snowing out,temps were in the 20's.I was about 30 minutes into my walk when the podcast stopped ,I looked at the screen and seen that familiar temperature icon and warning message.Took the phone out and exposed it to the outside air thinking that it could not get enough air circulation in my pocket.It did not help ,it must have to shut down in a safe mode for a given amount of time ,whatever that is ,either internal temp or combination of time/temp.I got home about 30 minutes later ,plugged it into my charger because I was at 50% before I started my walk ,it now read 42% charge.The screen did not react to my touch swipe for a few minutes,could of been too cold but soon after it worked just fine.Don't have any answers just figured I would post this and read the blogs to see if this was a common issue.Kind of surprised me whenthis happened so I guess I will keep an eye on it for now.

I've seen someone else's screenshot of it. Never on my phone though.

I never seen it. Didn't realize it would tell you if your phone needed a cooling period.

It's happened to me before. Granted, I was driving home from NY with my phone charging and google maps spitting out directions with the sun blaring on me and my phone.

Never happened to me on my iPhone . But when I had my android phone it would over heat due to overlocking and playing games for hours . Device would be laggy as hell . Devices have thermal protection when it's gets to hot it will either throttle down the cpu and things will get funky not work right or just turn off

I haven't seen it on my own devices but I used to work for a cellphone store. I'd seen it on a few devices. Mostly ones left in the car, in Texas heat.

I could of sworn my 6 was going to show that but didn't. Just overheated with no warning.

 

[iTechHead]

Yup, it was when I had my black iPhone 5. I was on a road trip and fell asleep with it in my lap. When I woke up the temperature warning was on and I swear you probably could've cooked a egg on the thing.

 

[Titanicology]

Yes, when my mobile data, Wi-Fi and Hotspot where on.

I'm joining the conversation late... but, I have only seen that warning when I had the iPhone 4S and I saw it ALL THE TIME. Now that I have a 5S, I have yet to see it. The only time I noticed it was on hot days and it was in my pocket all day as I'm moving around for work, or on the beach. I'll have my phone plugged in, playing 3D heavy games, connected to bluetooth accessories all at the same time and the phone got warm, warmer than I'm comfortable with, but like I've said I have yet to see it appear on my 5S.

Just a thought... Could it possibly be the type of case you're using? I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this. I personally only use cases that snap on from the back and there no front to make it a "capsule" so heat goes away fairly well.

I've read about apps that run in the background and overload the processor...perhaps thats's your isse....
