Rising temperatures mean more outdoor activities. Most of us heat up when we're overactive, and so do our phones. When we're out and about (SPF 50), we're always careful to take precautions against the sun and heat. Do you take the same precautions to protect your phone? Here's what causes your phone to get overheat, how to prevent it from overheating.

Why is your phone getting hot?

Your phone's internal temperature is based on the temperature of its environment. If your phone gets too hot, it could run out of battery, be forced to shut down, or even have a complete meltdown (no kidding, your phone's CPU could melt if extreme temperatures are reached). If your phone is forced to shut down due to overheating, it may not be able to restart.

There are many reasons why a phone can overheat, but it has nothing to do with the heat outside, and several have to do with the battery. Do you have a bunch of apps running in the background? Many apps use a lot of batteries and quickly run out of juice. As a result, your phone gets heated.

Another problem could be how often you use your phone. If you play with your phone all the time, your phone battery will work overtime, which will raise the temperature of your phone. Are you willing to leave your phone charger on after it reaches 100% charge? That, too, could be the problem. Overcharging can cause the device to overheat.

Five tips to keep your phone from overheating

1. Avoid direct sunlight on your phone.

The easiest way to prevent your phone from overheating is to keep it out of the sun. Your phone absorbs light and heat from the sun and keeps it there, and the longer it stays in the sun and heat, the hotter it gets.

2. Turn off unused apps on your phone.

Unused apps running in the background can make your phone work harder and cause it to heat up. The solution is very simple -- on the iPhone, for example, all you have to do is press the home button twice and then swipe the app. Bonus: This will also increase your phone's battery life.

3. Avoid turning up the screen brightness.

Just like running background apps, turning up the brightness forces the battery to work harder and generate more heat. Instead, find an anti-glare cover for your device. This low-cost solution helps you see the screen in sunlight.

4. Put your phone on airplane mode.

In airplane mode, you can continue to use the phone's basic functions, but turn off other non-essential functions because they drain the battery.

5. Take off your phone cover.

If your phone overheats, your case won't help. Removing the case will allow the heat sink to work properly without clogging, allowing your phone to cool down faster.
