I have the same issue. Phone overheating and not charging. 15 Pro is a joke.
To anyone saying “turn your screen off” I’m using my phone as GPS. If $1000 can’t charge and keep screen on then something is wrong with this POS.
jesus, mary, and joseph do you work on your phone or sum
My phone has never had a cable pluggeg in, in over 2 years. Definitely not the issue
My brother in Christ you have 23hrs of screen on time in a single day 💀 like – how
I wanna know HOW?!
Theirs a dip of 15 min probably a bathroom break around 6/7

It’s over a few days
No wonder it’s overheating lol something’s hogging his phone
His phone got the electric chair 😭
always on display, I guess?
Standby mode
The issue is you’re phone been on MagSafe charger from 9pm till 6pm the next day that’s 21 hours mate.
I use my phone on wireless charger in my car ash dashcam running camera 24/7 when I drive and car temp is around 21 degrees Celsius and not running hot at all. And I only wireless charge. Also have a case.
If I was you I would check what app is using so much power that it heats up your phone. Yes even on background some faulty app design can make your phone run hot.
You’re phone been on charge for nearly 22 hours bro. No wonder it’s hot mate. Looks like you just constantly have your phone on charge all time.
I mean 23 hours can make the phone temp go up
It’s the combination of StandBy display timeout set to “never” and what looks like constant MagSafe charging. They’re going to need that graphene heat sink system that’s rumored for the 16 or 17 Pro. lol
I have it set to ‘never’ through the night using AOD and StandBy. It contributes to ‘Screen Idle’ but not ‘Screen Active’ or screen time. I have 14PM so not sure if it is different on previous models if they don’t have AOD.
I wouldn’t think “never” is an option for models that don’t have AOD.
bro have you tried not using it while charging?
The iPhone does not heat up due to charging. You keep it in a hot environment, that’s the problem
False. Wireless charging regardless of method (qi or MagSafe) causes heat in the device and charging coils. This is part of the ecosystem, no way around it. It’s extremely inefficient.
It absolutely does heat up due to charging. Wireless charging is less efficient because more of the energy is wasted into heat.
Tbh, having the screen on the entire time the phone was on charge wouldn’t help. You probably have StandBy set to never turn off the screen. If that’s your personal preference then you may run into this issue often
I Am not sure if standby mode actually counts as screen active time, shouldn’t matter either way.
Do you have a case on your phone?
Do you use the Apple 20W charger?
Does your phone do any background tasks while charging? (Apart fro, standby)
I have a case, non Apple charger, and I don’t think it does any background stuff (maybe syncing photos to iCloud?)
I use MagSafe pretty much exclusively and have never had this issue
This is definitely a bug. I also use StandBy with MagSafe and this is not how your Activity should look at all. Regardless look into your case.
iPhone 15 Pro, MagSafe Charging only, no problem for me.
