I recently got a new iPad Pro 11” (m4) . Within just a few minutes of playing Minecraft, the device gets extremely hot and the battery rapidly drains. I also own an older iPad Pro 11” (m2). When I use the exact same version of Minecraft with the same settings on the older iPad Pro 11” (m2) it there is no issue. It’s very noticeable on the new version when comparing side by side.
My iPad Pro 11” (m4) does not seem to have this issue yet with other apps…so I’m wondering if it’s an issue specific to this combination of device and Minecraft version.
