    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Apple has identified the causes of an overheating problem with its latest iPhone series, including a software bug and using certain apps.

    The tech company said it would issue an update to fix the bug in its iOS 17 software and was working with developers whose apps had overloaded its handsets.

    “We have identified a few conditions which can cause iPhone to run warmer than expected,” said Apple in a statement.

    Instagram, owned by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, modified its app last week to prevent it from heating up the device on the latest iPhone operating system.

    Ben Wood, the chief analyst at CCS Insight, said: “It is interesting to see that Apple has responded to the concerns around the iPhone 15 Pro devices getting hot.

    The company added that the problem was not related to a shift from its proprietary Lightning charging cable to a USB-C port that allowed it to comply with EU regulations.
