Your iPhone 12 Pro canm be submerged in 2 metres of water (7 feet) for a half hour, if it just fell into the sinkand you got it out right away I wouldn't even worrym. If it happens again wipe it dry and carry on. Worst thing which could happen is that your glass screen protector may come off.

Simon, my sister was over here helping me look for rice.  I had none, but a short Google search suggested oatmeal or even couscous.  I decided to go with the oatmeal.  I put the phone in a ziplock bag and it's currently sitting on my dryer that's been running for a couple of hours. The phone

The phones are meant to be water proof down to I believe it's a meter (3 feet +/-) For up to approx. 30 minutes. How ever soapy water could be a problem as the chemicals in the soap may be an issue. Good luck. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Lisa
