a few things you need to do and should not do to keep your charger warm when charging your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing you need to avoid when charging your iPhone is <strong>not to use the device.<\/strong> <strong>When you charge your iPhone and also use it,<\/strong> the charger and the phone will get hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re in a room with a high temperature and the charger is plugged into a higher voltage, it may also influence the charger to get hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To solve this problem, try to <strong>plug<\/strong> the charger into an APC Surge protector, or an uninterruptable power supply (UPS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you try it by using a low voltage or an APC power surge and your iPhone charger is still hot, you&#8217;ll need to <strong>buy a new iPhone-certified charger<\/strong>, and when doing this, please update your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the problem continues visit any of Apple&#8217;s care services, or go to your local repair shop, where they&#8217;ll extensively check it out for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Buying<\/strong> a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ZneaxW\" target=\"_blank\">certified Apple charger<\/a>, or a charger that is recommended for iPhone users can also work without it getting hot. You can get a brandable charger from <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ZneaxW\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><strong>ALSO READ: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techvocast.com\/how-to\/fix-images-not-loading-on-iphone\/\">iPhone Photos Not Loading? 13 Ways To Fix It (Solved)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-is-my-iphone-charger-hot\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-my-iphone-charger-hot\"><\/span>Why Is My iPhone Charger Hot?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your iPhone charger is hot, <strong>different reasons<\/strong> might be causing this problem. It may be that the iPhone charger is hot because you&#8217;re using and also charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When charging your iPhone, <strong>don&#8217;t use it,<\/strong> the phone will get hot, and so will the charger. If the <strong>environment<\/strong> is hot, the charger and phone may be hotter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But here are issues that real people have <strong>pointed out,<\/strong> which have caused the Apple iPhone charger to get hot, and even hotter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your iPhone charger gets hot when the <strong>charger cable is bad<\/strong>, but this isn&#8217;t always the case, but it also contributes when you have a charger that&#8217;s always hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But eventually, the fault is always on the <strong>adapter<\/strong>. Chargers that speed up the charge of your iPhone end up getting hotter, it&#8217;s that simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason why your iPhone charger is hot is that <strong>the charger isn&#8217;t compatible<\/strong>, or you just <strong>bought a fake one<\/strong> that isn&#8217;t fit for your iPhone device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you&#8217;re not using an <strong>official<\/strong> name charger for your iPhone or the one that comes with your iPhone, well you&#8217;ll likely experience this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plug your device into a <strong>faulty wall socket<\/strong>, it may also cause the iPhone charger to get hot. So using a faulty socket or an <strong>extension<\/strong> may get your phone charger hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your iPhone charger is also hot because you\u2019re using an extension with too many <strong>plugs plugged in.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So plugging your charger in an extension where they&#8217;re multiple plugs can influence your charger and make it hotter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you&#8217;re not <strong>charging your phone for too long<\/strong>. If you&#8217;re over-changing your iPhone for too long, it will get the charger hotter, this is because the charger will be in the socket for too long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is quite easier to resolve this issue since you now know the reasons for this problem you have with your iPhone charger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><strong>ALSO READ: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techvocast.com\/how-to\/fix-videos-not-playing-on-iphone\/\">Videos Not Playing on iPhone? 16 Ways To Fix It (Solved)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-fix-iphone-charger-getting-hot\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-fix-iphone-charger-getting-hot\"><\/span>How To Fix iPhone Charger Getting Hot<br \/><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your iPhone charger getting hot is an issue that you can&#8217;t overlook.

When this happens, it makes the charger hotter than you expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, we recommend that you set one wall socket aside to charge your device to give it enough wattage to supply your iPhone device. This will help resolve the issue of your iPhone charger not cooling down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fix-4-update-your-ios\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-4-update-your-ios\"><\/span>Fix 4: Update Your iOS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your iOS device is outdated, it gives problems such as bugs that cause your iPhone device to work abnormally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the charger of your device is overheating, it may be a problem with your iPhone software and you must update your iOS to get rid of that as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To update your iOS to stop your iPhone charger from overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Go to your Settings app, and tap on General &gt;&nbsp; Software Update &gt; Tap Download and Install if there&#8217;s a new update to update to the new version.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fix-5-don-t-use-your-iphone-while-charging\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-5-dont-use-your-iphone-while-charging\"><\/span>Fix 5: Don&#8217;t Use Your iPhone While Charging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The fastest way to get your phone charger hot is by using the device when it&#8217;s charging.
