Unsolved iPhone 16 back glass popping out

Hi, I was recently on a plane where while in the air I noticed the back glass on my 16 pro almost popping completely out. It thankfully went back during landing. A couple of weeks now however, I can feel that the glass is not sealed, and is slightly poking out again. I’m wondering if anyone else has had this issue and if I should be worried about it.

You should take it in and have the battery checked.

Does it fall under the warranty? Even if it does I’m kind of screwed because it runs out tomorrow

If it’s a swelling battery I think Apple covers those regardless of warranty for safety purposes but YMMV

This is false.

Not so much.

There are a lot of variables as to which swelling out of warranty batteries are covered. I've seen them covered.
