The 14 pro is pretty sweet tho.

puzzle.bsky.social•573 days ago

Same! Running unreasonably hot on an iPhone 13 Pro here also. There aren’t even any videos in this app yet so like why

ionotter.bsky.social•573 days ago

Bloody Hell! I'd wondered why my phone was dying at warp speed?!

srossmktg.com•573 days ago

Huh. I've been having battery/overheating issues of late on my Pixel 7 Pro as well and I was trying to pinpoint the app/process that was doing it. Now you've got me wondering if the culprit is the same... 🤔

Did it coincide with the update that introduced notifications? I could imagine something there causing a CPU thread to spend time in a hot loop.

aparker.io•573 days ago

same thing happened with me once they pushed the notification update

waxmonkey.bsky.social•573 days ago

i heard people with similar concerns maybe a month ago, all app related, not on web browser

jcsalterego.bsky.social•573 days ago

i think the whole point of push notifications (in iOS) is that the app *doesn't* have to poll, so i'm guessing it's purely coincidental in timing

aparker.io•573 days ago

maybe, I assumed it was something fucky with how RN hooked into APNS because notifications are still weird but yeah

aparker.io•573 days ago

I mean I don’t care enough to hook this up to a profiler yknow

jcsalterego.bsky.social•573 days ago

you know what doesn't take extra CPU? speculation with zero research

aparker.io•573 days ago

I’ll just use Graysky for now (thanks faine!!)

1.47 introduced notifications, and 1.48 had bugfixes that sound a lot like "CPU locking up", so it would not surprise me.

jcsalterego.bsky.social•573 days ago

lol nevermind me

samuel.bsky.team•573 days ago

nope the notifications fix was to do with a very obviously glitchy infinite loop, you can see my screen recording here: https://github.com/bluesky-social/social-app/issues/1302

samuel.bsky.team•573 days ago

the glitch made like a billion requests so if you got the bug, you'd get rate limited and booted back to the login screen

burrito.space•573 days ago

ditto, a while back. soooo hot. but not the good hot.

jametc.bsky.social•573 days ago

Oh my god is this why my phone is dying so much faster lately????

faineg.bsky.social•573 days ago

quite possibly!

bradiscranky.bsky.social•573 days ago

Wow, it's remarkably difficult to google up an image of one of Skum's "seems concerning" tweets. Almost like his name and "concerning" is a common mix that makes it hard

checkwithscience.com•573 days ago

ok but

post pics from new phone? that camera is 🔥
