Indeed. In earlier iOS versions the warning message was 'it's too hot' even when it was too cold. I always thought that might be from developers in California maybe not considering the cold-case.
I know right? Back in the day my iPhone 4s would almost always shut down on my way to university in winter. It was a 30 minute walk in cold, windy Quebec weather, but my S7 does not have this problem. Why is this news?
How frequent is it? I've seen it happen to a couple of friends this year and the temperature was barely below 0 Celsius. It must be worse up there.
When it's -30, I don't even try to use my phone. I keep it in my pocket close to my body with the hopes that my body heat will keep it warm enough for it to work if I need it.
That's common knowledge even in Texas.
Yup, that's what I came to add. Have seen it too many times here.
