Joon 8,222 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 It's probably gone my dear. You can try to follow some advice on the Internet that recommend putting it in a bag of rice to absorb water, but...keep in mind Apple doesn't necessarily recommend that (they don't not recommend it either...if it doesn't help and you need to speak with Apple. I wouldn't necissarily mention you did that to apple support if you speak with them. Just say you tried to dry it or heh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joon 8,222 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Instant rice and instant couscous tend to work better. Open air helps too. So keep air on it until you can get some rice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grape Soda 12,004 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The rice will pull the water from your phone but it takes like a day. Hopefully you have apple care tho, just don't tell them you dropped it in water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarmin 1,609 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Try to put it in rice when you get back. If it doesn't work, you have to get it repaired but yeah like the person above said, don't tell them you dropped it in water. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
