Apple has acknowledged fixing the heating up of its recently announced iPhone 15 models and other problems related to well-known apps.

The Cupertino, California, corporation announced on Saturday that it is working on an upgrade to the iOS17 operating system that runs the iPhone 15 series to stop the handsets from getting uncomfortable hot. It is also dealing with apps that are running in ways “causing them to overload the system.”

The social media software for Instagram, which is owned by Meta Platforms, was adjusted earlier this week to stop heating up the iPhone using the newest iOS version.

According to Apple, upgrades for Uber and other apps, like the video game Asphalt 9, are still being rolled out.

“We have identified a few conditions which can cause iPhone to run warmer than expected,” Apple in a short statement provided to The Associated Press

Apple acknowledged the issue but emphasised that it wasn’t caused by the elegant titanium housing of the premium iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max as opposed to the stainless steel seen on earlier handsets.

Apple also denied rumours that the overheating issue with the new models was caused by a switch from its exclusive Lightning charging connector to the more popular USB-C port in order to meet with a requirement set down by European authorities.
