Battery drains extremely quickly and the phone heats up in 1 geographical area only.

Phone: iPhone SE 2 (2020)
iOS: 27 Developer Beta 2 (It happened to me on 26.5 before.)
Problem:
Battery drains extremely quickly and the phone heats up in 1 geographical area only, that being the area where my mom's house and my swimming pool are located. (they are pretty close). That never happens in my house, at work or at any place I commonly drive except for that area. The only thing i can think of is that the internet there is quite unstable and is always at 1/4 bars. But how would that relate to such extreme battery usage?
Steps to recreate:
Find a location where you're in LTE range but it's unstable
Turn off your screen
Wait around 30 minutes
See that the battery has dropped from 100% to 70% and the phone feels like it's going to melt in your hands.

Tips for a beginner?

I bought this game pretty recently when it was 75% off. I downloaded a lot of mods from CKAN. I enjoy making planes in sandbox. It's very fun. I've made the F-18E, F-22A, Su-27 and now making the Su-30SM2. I also tried making the Cessna 182 but it turned out meh.
But now I want to go to space.
Any tips for that? Specifically, are there already space stations or do you build them yourself? If yourself, then how? Also, is it possible to build a land base like KSC on Kerbin itself/other planets yourself? If yes, then how?
What should I first do when I decide to go to space? Make a station/find one or go straight for a planet?
Also share any tips you know even if they aren't in the questions
Ignore costs for all of the mentioned questions, I'm more of a sandbox player

Since everyone's posting theirs

I don't know why this one was so easy. My May challenge was record 14 running workouts of atleast 1.62km.

Ran my first sport orientation route!

For those who don't know, sport orientation is a category where you're given a chip and a map and you have to locate and tap the chip on checkpoints. It's actually fun.

App Store is continuously loading on watchOS 27.

I'm wondering if anyone else had this problem and if they fixed it? I tried restarting the watch.

Apple Watch Series 11 - A Comprehensive Review

Before I start my yapping session, you should know that this is my first Apple Watch, I didn't have any before.

I'll divide this review into sections of different features and then provide a summary as well as a comparison between this watch and others and why I chose the S11.

&gt;> WORKOUTS <<
I workout almost every day. I'm not going to the gym that often, but I do pullups, squats, pushups, exercises with 8kg dumbbells and other stuff at home a lot. I also do swimming, running and cycling.
This watch measures everything I need accurately. HR, pace, length, distance, everything. Another thing that is very good is swimming. I was concerned at first but I tried it and it's perfect. Water temperature, depth, style, stroke length, laps, distance. After getting out of the water, you hold the crown and all of the water buzzes out of the speakers.

&gt;> ACTIVITY <<
The rings kinda gameify the whole activity aspect of my life, and the animation when closing them is just heavenly. Nothing more to say.

&gt;> HEALTH AND SLEEP <<
Heart rate - very accurate during workouts, however has infrequent measurements when still. This isn't that huge of a problem, and it also measures quickly after opening the HR app.
Blood Oxygen (SpO2) - sometimes annoying because to need to open the health app on your phone, but pretty accurate compared to tests in a hospital.
ECG - I don't know about the accuracy, never took one other than on my watch. It works.
Hypertension and Sleep Apnea notifications- never got them but they save lives, I'll watch out for them.
Sleep tracking - could be a bit more accurate with the awake during the night counts. Sometimes I speak and change how I lay during my sleep, and the watch counts that as awake time.
Sleep score - way too easy to get 95+ for me, but a nice feature.
Overall, this watch is very good at health tracking and it saves lives.

&gt;> APPLICATIONS <<
Weather, alarms, depth, timers, calendar and many more of the built-in ones - very useful, thumbs up.
The App Store - has some useful apps like Heart Analyzer, and if you are crazy, there's an app that lets you watch YouTube on your AW. Most of them are either paid or have limited functionality for free.

&gt;> WATCH FACES AND COMPLICATIONS <<
My current one is Modular. I still haven't really settled on them. Share your favorites in the replies.
The array of watchfaces is big yet small. My reccomendation is to create multiple and switch depending on your needs. I know there's apps like Clockology but they'll drain more battery and they aren't as smooth as the native ones. The complications are great, but I can't choose the ones I use the most besides Weather and the rings. Overall, it's more that just about telling the time.

&gt;> BATTERY LIFE <<
Charge it while showering and getting ready for bed. More than enough for a day. It'll last more if you disable AID and raise to wake.

&gt;> THE WATCH <<
I got the Aluminum 46mm GPS.
The 46mm is definitely better for me. I tested both in the store, the bigger one is much more comfortable to use the apps on. Do I regret not getting cellular? Absolutely not. I hardly imagine a use case where I need cellular and don't have my phone nearby. And it's 100 bucks more expensive!
I got a Milanese loop in black. It's not an Apple original, but it's high quality and cheaper. Fits the watch great and is light. Overall, the choice of colors and especially bands is wide.
Is Titanium worth it?
IMO, no, it's not. But if you have extra money, why not. I'd rather get a new watch 3 years later after it gets scratches instead of buying anmore expensive one and not upgrading.

&gt;> SE 3 and Ultra 3 vs Series 11 <<
The SE 3 is a good choice but it lacks a better battery, a bit bigger screen, better brightness, fast charging, etc. It's the watch you should get if you don't work out often and just want to see the time and basic stuff like steps.
The Ultra 3 was just too expensive and had cellular and titanium, features which I don't need. My next watch will most likely be an Ultra though.

&gt;> OVERALL <<
It's a great watch. If you're thinking about buying one, go for it. It's probably the best Apple product.

Swimming with the Apple Watch

So I've had my S11 for a while and I'm a bit worried about bringing it into the pool. I know it's waterproof and has a depth gauge, but I've seen some people saying it died/got damaged. Mine's new and has no scratches and am wondering if I should bring it to a public pool that has chlorine in it. And if I do, after how long will the waterproofing degrade?
