Overheating is nothing so serious for iPhone, but there’s a reason to stop your iPhone from getting warm much too often. Here’re 3 useful fix if your screen recording iOS 15/14/13 also brings unwanted temperature to the device:

Step 1: Stop Bluetooth and GPS service if you don’t need them during the record. These 2 are the most important heating factors for iPhone. On iOS 15/14/13, you can turn Bluetooth off in the Control Center, and visit Settings > Privacy > Location Services to turn it off.
Step 2: Unplug iPhone if it’s charging until it cools off.
Step 3: Reboot iPhone > start screen recording all over again.
