There are many contributing factors to phone temperature.
It could also be faulty (perhaps the battery).

Both the Roku Express 4K+ and the Google Chromecast with Google TV are excellent streaming devices, but they offer different experiences.
Roku Express 4K+
Consider these factors when making your decision:
How Does it Work?
When your phone is plugged in and you enable bypass charging, the power from the charger is directly supplied to the phone's components, bypassing the battery. This reduces the number of charge-discharge cycles, which can accelerate battery degradation. Well I did some digging and found which phones support this feature:
If you’re in the market for a new phone, perhaps consider this feature in your criteria list. Ep269 Image: AI generated
Try using a different launcher maybe?
Image: https://niagaralauncher.app/ The Apple iOS update 18.2 has made some significant changes to system apps, especially Photos. You may feel like all your photos have moved, gone or you have multiple copies. Well it’s most likely due to the new interface and the new way things are grouped and sorted. If you scroll down to the bottom of your default photos app screen there is a customise and reorder option button.
When I plug in headphones, the sound still comes out of my speakers. Windows should ask or automatically set up headphones when you plug them in to an audio port on your PC or laptop. If not, try the volume control (speaker icon) in the system tray bottom right. Select sound output on the bottom right hand choose from the options. Hopefully you will see your headphones. Note: More settings at the bottom

In Windows Settings -> Keyboard you can play with repeat delay which might help. If your keyboard is hard wired, it’s likely faulty, so get a new one - they are cheap enough. If it’s wireless or bluetooth:
So, you can buy a premium TV which has these connectors or get a Wii dongle from ebay, Temu, Aliexpress etc… You can get an adapter which plugs into the Wii and has a HDMI connector output which will go into most TVs. Both video and Audio are transmitted through the HDMI plug.
Great cheap option to keep the Wii alive. Image from https://www.nintendo.com/

How do I enable Gesture Navigation?
What is it? Navigating between apps on your phone can vary. The old way has 3 buttons or icons at the bottom of the screen. Arrow (back) circle (home) square (list apps) Gesture navigation uses Swipe (left-right) to go back Swipe up (home) Swipe Up and Hold (list apps) Takes a bit of getting used to but gestures are more efficient. How to turn it on? Settings -> system settings -> Navigation Settings (gesture navigation) There may be some customisation options and other gestures you can turn on so have a bit on an explore in that part of settings. Incidentally, newer Apple phones use the same gestures. I saw a notification for an Android update and tapped on it. Then it disappeared and nothing happened?
In most cases updates are handled in the background as they can be large and take time to download. You may see a notification (swipe down) showing a download in progress. Sometimes downloads don’t happen if you’re not on WiFi. Sometimes updates are paused until after a period of inactivity - maybe overnight. You should be able to check on the status Settings-> System -> Software Updates You can also trigger an update from here (if it didn’t start). Always good to do a phone restart after an update (if it didn’t happen automatically).

Is this worth reporting to a (?) government organisation? If so, who / what would that be? The scamwatch website has a reporting mechanism. You can also report a phishing attack on Outlook according to Microsoft. I won't send you the link 🥴, just google "report phishing outlook". Scammers may send emails with no links or content for several reasons:
Apple to Android
Same but choose from Apple Device then follow the prompts Android to Apple Same WiFi network Quick Start -> Setup Manually Apps & Data -> Move Data from Android Agree to terms Enter one time code wait… Apple to Apple Same WiFi network Quick Start -> choose from ->Download from iCloud ->Copy from other device Follow the prompts Wait… In all cases you will likely need to re-login to all you app accounts, so plan to have those passwords ready. Keep your old device for a couple of weeks - DO NOT FACTORY RESET until you’re sure you have all the data. You can access Youtube in a number of ways from your browser of choice or you can install an App on most devices. For example your TV may have a Youtube app which can be installed from an app store - be it Google (Android), Samsung, LG, Sony, etc… Like most apps, there are benefits which are often not available in the browser editions. That said, in some cases the reverse is also true.
Generally, if you can’t install an app, you can always use the browser. For TVs, you can always explore the option of casting from your phone, tablet, laptop or plugging in a HDMI cable. I would suggest you try both methods and see which will suit your purposes the best. This can vary depending on what you are trying to achieve. Ep255

For example, you could ask a chatbot on a website about the weather, and it will tell you if it's going to be sunny or rainy. Or you could talk to a chatbot on your phone to order a pizza, and it will understand what you want and help you get it.
Chatbots are like smart helpers that use computers to have conversations with you and make your life easier! In technical terms: A chatbot is a computer program or artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to engage in text or voice-based conversations with humans. Chatbots are often used in various applications to automate tasks, provide information, assist with customer service, or simply engage in casual conversations.
A couple of options:
Note these icons on the dock are just shortcuts so removing them does not uninstall the associated programs. Windows has released a new version of Outlook that replaces Windows Mail and Calendar. This version of Outlook will suit most users and includes many of the basic features.
What you miss out on is advanced functions including calendar management, office apps integration and enhanced security. Also with a 365 subscription you get a larger OneDrive. For the most part, you won’t need any of this.
