==== The Photo Processor ====

After you update, your phone secretly re-scans your entire photo library to build "memories" and search tags. It pins your processor at 100% for days.
Settings → Apps → Photos → turn off "Enhanced Visual Search"


==== The Location Beacon ====

Dozens of apps are pinging your GPS 24/7. Constant location tracking is one of the biggest silent heat sources on your phone.
Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → set each app to "While Using," never "Always"
Kill the ones that have no business knowing where you are

==== The Background Refresh Drain ====

Every app you've ever opened keeps running and reloading in the background, even when it's closed.

Your processor stops working around the clock for apps you're not even using.
