My 12 Pro Max has had overheating issues usually when using gps apps when driving. I’ve had to put it in a vent mount with the AC on to stop it. I get out of the car to take pictures and can’t see the screen since its dimmed to 50% max. I was planning to get a 14 Pro Max hoping to get rid of the issue. Never had this problem with previous iPhones.

Actually you just reminded me of my 12 pro max issues with the gps, I literally did the same thing with the AC vent, forgot to list it in my post because I don’t use the gps much so it wssnt fresh in my head

Interestingly enough I used my gps on the 14pro on a 2 hour drive yesterday it was hot but no where near as hot as the 12pro max and the screen didn’t dim

This used to happen with my 5S when I had it, and it would shut off due to temperature while I was driving in the middle of a busy intersection
