Hello Richard, I am using the Anker USB-C charger, and I’ve been using that same charger ever since I had the phone. That is no doubt a bad thing, I don’t think I’ve ever been that concerned about one of my phones, as that was just way to warm. I knew something was wrong, but I couldn’t figure it out, because I didn’t make any changes on my phone today, or anytime recently. Do you remember not long ago, I was asking on list about my XR iPhone not holding a charge, now, I wonder is the flashlight turned on that phone too. So now, my phone is quite cool, and I will now turn on Apple Music just to see if the phone gets warm again, and if it starts to lose charge. I will report back in a few minutes. Thank you.

Call Apple as if the battery is getting very warm, and staying warm, that could be a very bad sign. You don't want it catching fire.

I listened to Apple Music for about 16 minutes, as I usually do, and I picked up the phone, and I noticed it was quite warm, so I was busy doing something, I laid my phone down, and I picked up my phone about an hour later to see if it was still warm, and it was very warm, and I checked the battery in the status bar, and it was down to 50 percent. So, I ate my lunch, and I picked up my phone again, as I was getting ready to charge it, and the battery status was down to 20 percent. I charged my phone, and now, it is at 100 percent, but it is still very warm. I’ve cleared out the app switcher I restarted my phone, I checked the background lighting, it is at zero, my curtain is on. Can anyone give some suggestions is to what I can check before calling Apple. Even though, I don’t have my phone turned on, it is still warm. Thank you in advance.
