Meanwhile, in Carrot Weather on iOS, you get an achievement award for experiencing a temperature of 69F.

(I assume it would do the same in Celsius, but have been unable to test.)

You probably wouldn't want to test 69°C anyway.

Not to trigger a Baader-Meinhof, but you could easily withstand that temperature in a sauna.

With your phone?

Well, 70 Celsius is the top of the standard commercial IC operating temperature range (0-70C) so it's not out of the question.

Here in Canada, when it gets below -15c or so, my iPhone will give me an error that it's out of it's operating temperature, and needs to "cool down". Californian developers, I guess.

It's certainly a thing: https://www.liquidimageco.com/can-you-take-your-phone-in-the...
