Tech experts had thought the problem was related to the iPhone 15’s new processor or titanium body, which houses the high-end iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

An Apple spokesperson told DailyMail.com that users may notice that their iPhone 15 Pro feels warmer when setting it up, restoring from a backup, charging it wirelessly, or using graphics- or processor-intensive apps.

The tech giant said a bug and other issues, such as using popular apps like Instagram and Uber, caused the newly released iPhone model to run hot.

Instagram released an updated version of its app on September 26 that supposedly fixes overheating.

Users have expressed their frustration with using the Instagram app on their iPhone 15 Pro for just a few minutes and found it to be incredibly hot.

Uber and other applications, such as the video game Asphalt 9, are still rolling out their updates.
