Look here, apple fan boy. You can try to piss and moan whatever way you want, but if you read the article you'd see this was happening while charging or just watching videos and doing "light duty use". A 116f case is absolutely not normal for that. My three+ year old phone doesn't even get a bit warm doing any of that. If my phone went over 90f from watching videos I'd be pissed. Apple likely screwed something up on their software side and the processor is spinning its gears hard for little to no reason.

It has also come out that there is a bug in the instagram app from what I’ve been reading.

This is causing a drastic increase in temperature and battery use on all iOS devices running ios17.

This could very well just be some app code bug that is caught in a processing loop.

It also explains why some people are seeing this and others are not, as not everyone is sitting on instagram while their phone is on charge.
