Apple has acknowledged what many buyers have noticed over the past week — the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro can get uncomfortably hot. The company said that background activity, an iOS 17 bug and third-party apps are causing the problem, Forbes reported. It added that a software update and fixes from developers are coming soon.
"We have identified a few conditions which can cause iPhone to run warmer than expected. The device may feel warmer during the first few days after setting up or restoring [it] because of increased background activity," a spokesperson said in a statement. "We have also found a bug in iOS 17 that is impacting some users and will be addressed in a software update.

This is designed to help solve a specific problem in which some (not all) managed Macs do not properly install Apple's Rapid Security Response updates.
When security isn't
In today's fast-moving threat environment, Apple has introduced Rapid Security Response (RSR) as a key front line against new threats. The defense is intended to be distributed and installed across Apple's platforms as swiftly as possible once new threats are identified. The idea is that by expediting distribution and making installation a quicker process, it will be easier to maintain security across Mac fleets. That's important as the scale of Apple deployments grows and enterprises move to support employee choice.
