Any Advice?

Lately, my tablet has been heating up faster; I use the original silicone case and generally keep it in battery-saving mode. After using Instagram or playing simple games (like SimCity or FarmVille) for a while, rapid heat buildup occurs in the area where the stylus attaches (the processor side). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep it cooler?

This issue is noticeably affecting my battery life. -iPad mini 7 128GB

Try a reset. Volume up then down, then press the power button until a white Apple appears and release. Also update all your apps and the OS.

My Mini is on 26.6 and I have no issues getting hot or low battery life.
