14 DAY TRIAL // If there’s something that Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 has left behind, it’s certainly the exaggerated attention that phone makers are now paying to overheating.
In many ways, this can only be good news, especially as dealing with overheating more efficiently means we, the customers, are no longer exposed to any risks of fire.
Apple knows how important this is, and as it turns out, iOS 16 will come with a new warning specifically supposed to let users that overheating occurred during charging.
If the iPhone is plugged and ends up experiencing excessive heat, the device should show a warning on the lock screen that reads “Charging On Hold. Charging will resume when iPhone returns to normal temperature.”
Furthermore, the battery settings screen on the iPhone will also show a message to inform the user that the “charging was on hold due to iPhone temperature.”
Biggest update in a very long time
Without a doubt, iOS 16 is one of the biggest updates the iPhone has ever received, as it comes with essential improvements in nearly every single regard.
Apple itself has praised iOS 16 for the impressive pack of updates and new capabilities that it brings, explaining that this operating system will change the way users interact with their iPhones.
“iOS 16 is a big release with updates that will change the way you experience iPhone,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “We have reimagined how the Lock Screen looks and works with exciting new features that make it more personal and helpful, introduced iCloud Shared Photo Library for families, streamlined communication through new capabilities in Messages and Mail, and harnessed enhanced intelligence with updates to Live Text and Visual Look Up.”
The final version of iOS 16 is supposed to go live to the iPhone 8 and newer in September.
