or more before turning back on.
3
Remove your phone from the water immediately. The
longer your phone stays submerged, the more
chance it has of shorting out. Quick reflexes can
mean the difference between a working phone and a
dead one.
4
Power down the phone. To do so, press and hold
the Power button, then slide the button at the
top of the screen right when prompted. The sooner
you can turn off your iPhone, the higher its
chances of recovery will be. If the screen is off
but you're not sure if the phone is on, quickly
press the Power button to see if the screen turns
on. If it does, proceed to power the phone off.
If it doesn't, leave it off.
5
Remove any case that is on the iPhone. If your
iPhone has a case, it may be holding in moisture
removing the case will allow the phone to breathe.
6
Remove your iPhone's SIM card and tray. To do
so, insert a SIM removal tool or an unbent
paperclip into the SIM tray's hole to pop the SIM
tray out. Completely remove the tray so that
water can escape.
7
Use a dry, absorbent cloth to wipe down the
phone. Get all of the excess moisture off with an
absorbent cloth. Make sure to get the moisture
out of the charging port, the volume keys, the
headphone jack and any other crevices.
8
Swab out ports with a toothpick and piece of
cloth. Get a thin piece of cotton, like an old
shirt, and wrap a single layer around the end of
a toothpick. Use this to absorb any excess water
from the charging port and headphone jack.
9
Place the iPhone in a warm, dry location. The
best way to get rid of the water inside of your
iPhone is to simply let it air dry in a warm
place for as long as possible.Many guides will
report that placing your iPhone in a bag of rice
will help draw the water out. This has
been proven false--simply letting your iPhone air
dry is the most effective way to fix it.1Air
drying will be more effective if you are able
to remove the battery from the iPhone.
10
Wait at least 48 hours. The longer you can wait,
the more successful your drying process will be.
If you can wait longer than 48 hours, 72 hours
may be even more effective.
11
Check for the water damage indicator. Each iPhone
has a small indicator that tells repair
technicians that the phone has received water
damage. The indicator is a piece of plastic that
turns red when it comes in contact with too much
water. You can check this indicator yourself to
see if your phone may be damaged. Use a
flashlight to help you see inside the port. This
indicator usually means that you likely won't
qualify for free repair, in which case you may
want to consider fixing the phone
yourself.2iPhone 5 and up - Look for a red
indicator in the SIM tray port on the screen side
of the phone.iPhone 4S - Look for a red
indicator in the charging port or in the
headphone jack
