Charging an iPhone under a pillow can lead to overheating and serves as a potential fire risk, especially during a heatwave. Apple warns against prolonged contact with devices when they are powered. Dirt and dust in charging ports may also pose a fire risk. Overcharging devices can lead to fires, and Firechief Global emphasizes the importance of charging devices on open surfaces away from flammable materials. Proper ventilation is crucial while charging to ensure safety and prevent accidents.
Apple has issued a warning about charging your iPhone under your pillow, as it can easily overheat and become a potential fire hazard.
Phones generate heat during charging, and covering them with pillows or blankets can trap that heat, increasing the risk of overheating and potentially causing a fire.
Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device, its power adapter, or a wireless charger when it's operating or connected to a power source for long periods of time.
Overcharging - leaving phones on charge all night - is also a leading cause of fires in devices with lithium-ion batteries.
