Dimming phone due to overheating

What’s the deal with the dimmer tripping over heat issues. It’s not the auto dimmer it does it when I’m playing Cod and it’s very annoying. Please fix this issue

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Hi Helen,


That is not an issue because it is actually a safety measure against over heating. When you are playing graphics intensive games, such as COD, then shortly the iPhone may determine that it will over-heat and therefore will begin to dim the display in an attempt to use lesser resources.
