Someone also asked how a desiccant works. There are tons of hits with
Google, but one is http://www.roycopackaging.com/public/edu_desiccant.asp
Basically, desiccants absorb water and water vapor, so they will act
like a sponge if they come into contact with the water, and they'll
lower the hum

I used to work for a company that cleaned up wate
it go. If
anything it might be just a tad more effective than air drying, but
since air drying doesn't make people feel like they have some sort of
scientific insight, people will continue perpetuating what might be a
myth.

Ari ,my stepson left his lap top on our balcony and went for a walk. There was
an unexpected storm and the entire computer was soaked. Rice did the trick and
he's still using the machine a year later.

"...You have to put it in a bag of rice?" So you're telling me that the only
way moisture will dry is using your technique? Whatever happen to "air dry."
Maybe I should go out and start looking
they want to go swimming.
If you want to be very careful simply let the device air dry for a few
days--without rice and all the pseudoscience.

Hi, you can power off your phone, take off any case which may be on it.
Put it inside a zip lock bag with rice and leave it there for about 2
days. That should get any moisture out of the phone and into the rice.
I have below a link which explains more and offers links to even more tips.

that won't do it.
you have to put it in a bag of rice and even sometimes that won't save it.

I'd also wrap the iPhone in cheese cloth first. You don't want to get
any rice kernels or dust into any of the ports, jacks or gaps.

Fill a bowl with rice and bury the phone in the rice for up to 24
hours. The raw rice will absorb the water, and the phone will most
likely be fine.

Hi Ariana,
The recommended thing to do here is to turn the phone off completely as
Lauren already advised and then to stick it in a bowl filled with rice. You
want to completely cover it with rice and this will draw out any moisture.
Leave it there for 2 to 3 days. If your iPhone is your primary p

Hello, Lauren,
thank you so much for the quick response. I have taken the phone out of it's
case; in fact, it was the first thing I did. After holding the phone upright
for some time, the speaker sounds normal again.
I've heard of burying it in rice for a day can help with this sort of thing.
I would pull the phone out of it's case and let it sit for the next couple
of days until all water evaporates. If you continue to mess with it there
might be some water-related battery damage.
