There's a huge thread on here discussing CPU overload which happens usually when it's really hot outside.  This issue has been going on for well over a year with no real answers.  It all started when DJI began stuffing too much code into the DJI 4  app causing people's iPads, iPhones, Androids or whetever else we use to overun the CPU and make the tablets and phones overheat.  The ipads can usually take the load in cooler weather, but in the summer, the extra heat is just too much to handle.  DJI's answer has seemed to be spend more money and buy our Crystal Sky (which I've seen multiple reports that they burn out after a few uses.)  I've used the same iPad for years and didn't have any issues until last year after a DJI 4 update.  Since then, the weather has had a major factor in whether or not the ipad works correctly when using the DJI 4 app.  I eventually was able to swap iPads with my boss who had a newer iPad Pro.  So far, that one has stayed running in hot weather.

Hi, sorry for the troubles that it caused, I would suggest clearing all other application that is not necessary to use when using our application and the environment can be added to that heat especially when the sun reflects on your device, this may affect the performance of your mobile device as well.

Thank you very much for your answer. So, I suggest you move on to Ipad 9.7 or 10.5?

before you go out and replace your mini 4 try installing a hood on it. i use a galaxy tab s3 that gives me overheating warnings on hot sunny days , once i install the hood the warnings go away. i would suggest a hoodman or one of these (https://www.ebay.com/p/Favrison- ... 47675.c100005.m1851)

The A8 processor is a bit slow for the GO 4 Program. Another tip is to keep the Mini 4 out of the Sun and shut it down during your battery changes. You may want to consider a Crystal Sky. They handle the  heat very well and are much easier to view.

Hello, to fix your iPad overheating, you could try force restarting your device first. Or you could directly use the ios repair tool as TunesKit has succeeded in dealing with iPhone overheating before. And it can also resolve your iPad overheating without any data loss.
