iPhone, iPad and MacBook Heating Issues!

I have played this app on each of my Apple devices, both on battery and charger, and all of them get very, very HOT while playing TCG Live. Help! Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it a bug? A setting issue?

    I want to second this. I have a Mac Pro desktop and even playing for less than 5mins will cause the fans to spin up at max levels. This is a pro level video editing desktop that can edit 4k video all day long with the fans never lifting a finger.

    I also experience this on my iPhone. In addition to the heating issue it also eats battery like crazy. Playing one game will bring battery from 100% to 70-80%, which I guess is related to heating issues.

    I also have the same issue! My Apple devices get extremely hot while playing TCG Live, whether on battery or charging. I'm wondering if it's a bug or if there's a setting that could help reduce the heat. I’ve noticed similar behavior when using resource-intensive apps like CapCut for video editing, where adjusting performance settings or closing background apps can sometimes help. If you're experiencing lagging issues with CapCut, you can find helpful solutions at CapProCut APK. Has anyone found a fix for this?

    The mobile app it's damaging for the devices, unless you have means to by a new device sooner than expected avoid the app if you can, and play only the desktop version for now.
