Playing games while charging can also lead to the heating issue in your Realme 9 Pro 5G. Because when you charge your phone while playing the game, it is drawing power as well as using the power at the same time.

So, it’s a common thing that you have to do one thing, either you charge your phone or play the game. But, don’t do both things at the same time.

This method will help you to fix Realme 9 Pro 5G heating issue.

3. Don’t play games for a long time:

Not only in this phone but in every smartphone, if you play heavy games for a long time on your phone, then it would be the reason for the heating issue.

In this phone, we can see Qualcomm Snapdragon 695, which is totally not a gaming-centric processor. You can play PUBG mobile, COD mobile, and free-fire in lower or mid settings.

But you can not play games in high or very high graphics and not for a long time as well. If you play games for a long time on this phone, then it will ruin your phone.

So, please don’t play games for a long time and it will fix Realme 9 Pro 5G heating issue.

4. Hot Environment:

A hot environment can also lead to a heating issue in your phone. If you expose your phone to heavy sunlight or a heavy hot environment, then it could be the reason.

So, please don’t use your phone in heavy sunlight or in very hot environments.

5. Location:

Sometimes, when you download any app, some app required a location service to do or finish the next task and to provide a better experience. After installing that app we forget to turn off the location and it leads to a heating issue.

Apps like Shopping apps, matrimonial apps, cab apps, food delivery apps, google maps, and more. So, after using that app please turn off the location, otherwise, you will face a heating issue on your phone.

6. Culprit Apps:

There are some apps on our phones that are the main culprits. Yes, some are consuming a lot of power. And some apps are not that optimized which consumes more power and leads to heating issues.

Sometimes, we give some unnecessary permissions to some apps that are not needed though. Like we give location permission to some apps, and they keep running in the background.

And it leads to overheating issue in your phone. So, please don’t give permissions to those apps and if they are making any trouble then remove them. This method could help you to fix Realme 9 Pro 5G heating issue.

7. Hotspot:

Just like the location, the hotspot is also the reason for the heating issues in your phone. If you have noticed that whenever you enable hotspot your phone starts heating.

Not only is the heating issue but it drains the battery also in your Realme 9 Pro 5G. So, please turn the hotspot off when it’s not in use.

And if your hotspot is not protected by a password, then any random device will also connect to your device. And can consume your all data.

• So, turn it off either another device will consume all your mobile data.
• Always protect your hotspot with a password.
• And last don’t use it all the time.

8. Overusing:

If you are the kind of person who uses your phone too much, then this could be the reason for the heating issue in your phone. Using the phone for a long time not only lead to the heating issue but also leads to battery draining issue.

So, please don’t use your phone so much and restrict yourself from using the phone heavily.

9. Unusual Apps:

We use a lot of apps on our phones, some are useful and some are not. We install some apps to use for once and then we forget to delete that app after using it.

And those apps create a lot of problems on our phones. Problems like taking space unnecessarily, using RAM, creating junk, and creating cache memory.

And resulting our phone gets overheated and starts behaving wrong. So, please if you have such kinds of apps, then delete them. And this method will help you to fix Realme 9 Pro 5G heating issue.

10. Useless Notifications:

During the day we receive a lot of notifications on our phones, some are useful and some are not. Notifications like app updates, matrimonials, food discounts, product sales, etc.

Many of them are useful but some are not, and that leads to overheating issues on your phone. So, you just have to disable all the useless notifications on your phone.

           

To turn off notifications follow these steps:

• Tap and hold on that app which you want to turn off the notification
• Then, tap on App info
• Then, tap on Manage Notifications
• And then disable the allow notification option
• Done.

11. Background Running Apps:

Background running apps is also the main culprit of the heating issue of the phone. Some apps are saliently consuming data, storage, and RAM in the phone.

So, you just have to stop the background data of some apps that take data in the background. To turn off the background data, follow these steps:

            

• First, stop and clear all the open apps which are opened in the recent tab to make some extra space in RAM
• Now, tap and hold on to the applications you want to stop
• Then, tap on Data usage details
• Now, disable and background data
• Done.

12. Stop Permissions:

Most of the apps which we are using on our phones take permission and most of the apps are taking permission for no reason. And resulting they are running in the background, and your phone starts heating or overheating. So, you have to turn off some permissions from some apps which are not required.

Permissions like location, storage, camera. And because of these permissions, some apps are taking our personal data. Which is really not good and a privacy and security issue.

So, please stop all the permissions which are not required to your phone. And this simple method will fix Realme 9 Pro 5G heating issue.

13. Download Apps from Playstore:

If you have any app which is not downloaded from the Google Play Store then please remove it immediately. Because that app is may be creating a heating issue in your phone.

If any app is not available in the Google Play store, then most probably that app could not clear the security check and privacy criteria of Google.

So, please delete them. And if that app is really needed then you can find the alternative app of that app, and you can use them.

14. Update All Apps:

Some of the old versions of apps can also lead to the heating issue on your phone. Because old apps are not optimized with the new version of android.

They can not sync with the new version and the old version of apps created heavy damage to your phone. So, please update all the apps on your phone so that you can use them easily and securely.

To update all the apps, please follow these steps:
