iOS Question iPhone temperature overheating

[bobbruns]

I am developing an app for outdoor use and sometimes the phone gets very warm.

On Android if it gets too warm everything shuts down.

On Apple the shut down seems to be more staged. There seems to be an odd range around 49 degrees (120F) where some things work and some things don’t.

I started using this for sections of my code:
App.IdleTimerDisabled = True

Those sections seem to turn off last. When I release (re-enable) the idle timer the app shuts down completely and has to be restarted from the home screen!

I am having a hard time repeating this.

is it getting very warm when you run your app ?
maybe you are doing lots of processing that is not necessary?

hard to tell without seeing your code but if the iphone gets very hot it may be that something is wrong with your iphone or something is wrong with your code.

I leave the phone out in the sun. I was quite surprised that my app continued to run.
