Help Advice with Minor Issues

Hello,

About 8 months ago, I bought my Nexus 7 (2013). I really do enjoy it, and have used it every day since I've purchased it. However, I'm having a couple minor issues with my Nexus 7 (2013), and need some advice to go about it.

On occasions, my Nexus 7 will become unresponsive to touch. I will have to touch the screen several times for it to respond, and swipe controls will do haywire. I'll fix this by putting it on stand-by mode, and by reactivating it, it will work a normally. (Note: Update 4.4.3 has seems to mostly fix this issue). Note that I do have a very thin screen protector.

Also, after running certain apps that require a lot of processing and such, my Nexus will start to heat up (only in the top half center of the device). I do have a rubber case that does trap some heat, and taking it off does seem to cool it down a bit, but it is still warm. I understand this is pretty normal, but I'm just curious if it can be reduced or if it poses as a threat to my device.

Any explanations or ideas?

Thanks in advance.
 
The non responsiveness sounds like it's trying to play catch up. To many apps going at once or in the back ground. See if you have a factory set widget called .....active apps manager........if you do then use it every so often, especially when the phone seems to be getting slow.

As for the heat. ...... I'd your doing alt of stuff on the phone it will get hot, sometimes to hot to want to touch it. But on a good note, the phone will shut down if it is beyond its limits.
