P: Lightroom iPad/iPhone Device overheats & brightness dims

I have did the same edits also with masking on Photoshop en Affinity without any problems. 

So I hope that Lightroom will come with an solution for the problems from heating en low battery. If not i will do editing with Affinity for iPad 

Unfortunately it's not working, still. I was excited about the update, but it hasn't solved anything and my battery, drained so fast along with the heat coming from the center of my iPad. The thing I didn't notice was dimming. It used to dim before a lot and now it doesn't. I don't do anything unusual, but the problem is very very obvious when I start to create a single mask. This is the third iPad I own with the same problem. And it happens on my iPhone Pro as well. 

The editing was Basics sliders, masking, AI, everything for edit portraits. The iPad warms up verry quickly

Hello @ak39527375 

It would help if you could provide more details.  What specific steps, activities, edits, etc were you using?  

Thank you!

I have the same problems on new Ipad air 2024. It overheats and fast mow battery. 

I have the last version of Lightroom Mobile, so that was not the solution.

I just updated to 9.3 on my M2 iPad Pro and indeed after 5-10 minutes of playing around with Fuji raw files it appears you have fixed the issue. No screen dimming and the rear surface of the iPad doesnt heat up like it used to.

Well done for sorting this but it's remains dissapointing how long it took for you guys to even acknowledge the problem let alone work on a fix. I'll leave this message with a thank you... we got there eventually!

Greetings all,

Adobe Lightroom Mobile product updates have been released. The May 2024 updates contain changes to address this issue. 

Updates will be available via the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and the Galaxy App Store. Note that it can take several days for some customers to receive a notification of an available update via their App Store.

Thank you for being so patient.

I have the same problems on Ipad Pro 3gen. It overheats and brightness dims

Yes. This thread started 7 years ago and adobe has yet to do anything except delete my replies like this one. 

Unfortunately, since the issue has been around for years, I don't really believe Adobe can fix it. It's not entirely their fault; those devices are clearly too powerful to be fanless. Even the MacBook Air starts to throttle when it gets hot. The only solution I found is to use a strong phone cooler, like the Razer Cooler Chroma. You'll need a power bank to run it, but it's still very portable and ensures that your iPad will not overheat.
