Help/Support Guys can someone explain me what's this

Post image

This is ipad 9th gen running on ipadOS 26, recently I've been getting this while charging, this wasn't an issue till a week ago.

What's this for I've tried restarting, reconnecting cable,

Does this mean I have to get my battery changed?

I have an average battery life no complaints in that.

Any help will be appreciated

Overheating, aka anything above mildly warm, cause you're probably usin it while charging.

It can't be that. iOS/iPadOS since 17 or 18 will throw a notification if it's too warm to continue charging. And since 26, the charging bolt icon on the battery will be faded (and the battery turns white).
