I feel the same. He is the most thorough and reliable reviewer I have ever seen. Back when iphone launched night mode, no reviewer discolsed the option we had to take photos with 30s exposure time, and every comparison was done with the default exposure time. But he presented this and many others small things that made the difference. It’s all about being the right amount of subjective over objective

[@dkursada]

Of course it'd be Meta with its appalling code management/optimization... The more Meta apps I install on my phone, the worse its battery life gets.

I’ve been experiencing this ever since iOS 17 came out in release candidate. My iPhone 12 would get really warm and battery wouldn’t last until mid day. Even if I barely used instagram, which was usual for me, it’d still show up at the top of the battery consumption chart as being the most power demanding app. Ever since uninstalling and using the web version, haven’t had any of the issues before mentioned.

My iPhone 15 has been overheating. I would get on a phone call and 10 min into a call my phone would get unusually hot and the battery would drain pretty quick. This would happen on any call I get on. I watched your video and I decided to remove the instagram app and threads, I don’t use the apps but had them on my phone. After removing these two apps I have not had any heating on my phone nor does my battery drain. If you are having the same issue try that.

[@teagancali777]

Great video. I just got a 15 pro and I’ve noticed that instagram and especially TikTok along with a few others are making the phone very toasty and absolutely killing the battery. But on the other hand watching 35 minutes of KZbin took 1% of the battery and phone was stone cold. I’m hoping this is a software issue that can be fixed asap because right now my phone dies quicker than my old one.

[@KevinEF]

Any app that uses the chip's performance will heat up the device. The issue is that the titanium is a worse heat dissipator vs the aluminum that it's bonded to. If it was only the app, then previous iphones would be overheating too. The issue is with the titanium building the heat up without letting it go.

[@KennyNL_1]

iPhone 15 Pro Max and the iPhone 15 still needs software updates, and the apps must be updated for better speed and stability. People quickly tend to spread fake news over iPhones, when it comes to Samsung or Android phones in general, and there is something with Androids phones, nothing is told.

[@igotkeyzzz]

Ngl I think it’s the fact that it’s expected of Android to have its own issues and the fact that there are many manufacturers for the OS there’s more layers on which accountability can fall on. Phone manufacturers, the OS itself and app devs. While on iPhone it’s really only on Apple cause they are the only ones who make iPhone devices, so it’s easier to point the finger at Apple when they have some type of issue. That and it’s easy to hate on Apple cause it gets more views.

[@TariqMonther]

Not an iPhone user, but I can initially confirm that this affects Android phones, too, but in terms of battery life and not heat. Or at the very least the S22 Ultra which I have been using for a year and a half. I would lose anywhere between 1 to 3 percent every hour when the phone is just idle, and substantially a lot more when the phone is being used (this includes being in the lowest processor setting and the display resolution set to 720p). I saw this video last night, restricted Instagram from refreshing in the background and started charging my phone when before going to bed. Since the phone has been off the charger this morning, my alarms have been ringing every 4 minutes for about 30 to 45 minutes (yes, I'm that guy), and the phone has been on idle for a couple of hours after that, and I only saw an overall 4% drop in the battery. Will need to test this more, but I really hope that will finally solve my battery issues.

[@dealman3312]

Great work. Is Instagram aware, and should we uninstall the app until an update for this is available?

[@aaronroy7781]

My phone has never heated up yet. I don’t have instagram tho. I play madden and a couple of more games and still nothing. Hope they figure this out. Great video!

[@NekoMichi]

Huh, that explains why my devices weren't affected. I've never installed the Instagram app before. I even tried to overheat my phone by playing graphically intense games and it only got warm, not uncomfortably hot.

[@kevinmkf]

[@SIMTRIBE]

I can 100% confirm, that this is an issue on Android as well. I am using a Samsung S20 Plus and it gets piping hot when using Instagram since a couple of weeks unlike on any other app. I got paranoid and removed Instagram camera access and it helped a great deal, but still nowhere near where it should.

I had it overheated on me while filming 4k 30 outside for about 10-15 minutes in 89 degree weather in Florida. It gave me a warning that my phone needed to cool down and the screen dimmed terribly. I have filmed dozens of vlogs outside in Florida heat with my 14 pro max and never got that warning. The phone has an issue.

[@andyH_England]

It could be an app like Instagram running in the background. Best to close all apps and film again and if it does not overheat, then you have an app that is unoptimised. You can then work out what app it is.

[@DadGotParks]

@@andyH_England Today I had my phone get up to 100° doing nothing other than use an App that doesn’t even do anything other than view jobs. I barely used my phone for the day and my battery was at 60% at 4 PM. I have never had that happen with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I called Apple and did a service call. They ran a diagnostic asked me a bunch of questions and of course said everything looked like it was fine. I have an appointment to go to the Apple Store on Monday of the coming week for them to look at it to see if maybe mine has an issue and I can get it swapped out on Warranty.

I agree that finewoven will be fine if you use these things normally, but the criticism is mostly just. If some keys rub on it while it’s in pockets, or you drop it and it slides a bit on rough surface, it’s gonna show forever on a premium case that costs $60.

Right now use the web browser version. And here is what you can do to access it easier: Go to your safari, go to Instagram com Then tap on the up arrow icon on safari (it is at the bottom center) Add to Home Screen Now, instead of using the Instagram app, use this method to go to web version until it is fixed.

[@TheFlareMind]

So is an issue with Instagram specifically running on iOS 17? if that is the case, sounds like the app hasn't been optimized correctly for iOS 17. I'm using an iPhone 11 Pro for past 3 years and 9 months and haven't updated to iOS 17. I've yet to upgrade, not in a major rush but will see how things unfold in coming weeks / next 2-3 months. Thanks for providing clarity on the situation. There is so much fear mongering going on about it, WSJ and other media outlets are blowing it out of proportion.

[@iPhonedo]

Yes it is. I've been testing it on my phones iPhone 15, 14, 13, iPad all that runs on iOS/iPadOS 17 heats up like crazy.

[@LeoDuff]

Really interesting, great observation. If this theory proves true, do you think we notice it more on the 15 Pro because it's made of titanium, a material less conductive than aluminum, which can't extract the device's heat as efficiently, causing the glass to heat up more than previous models? Or is it just a placebo effect?

[@ky314]

Apple has said recently messaged that the titanium/aluminum of iPhone 15 Pros are better at conducting heat than stainless steel.
