The iPhone 8 has a rating of IP67 which means you can actually submerse it under 3 feet of water for 30 minutes and it should not hurt the phone. Of course while Apple tests this, they wouldn't recommend you routinely do this, but just in case if it did fall into a full bath tub and you took it out nothing bad would happen. The latest iPhones are actually IP68 which means they can stand submersion under 2 meters (a bit over 6 and a half feet) for I think 30 minutes or 1 hour. Some of you may remember the story of my 6S Plus which I got after it was released in September 2016. Then at Christmas I visited my family in northern British Columbia, went for a walk when it was -30 degrees out and promptly lost my phone. Despite hours of search along the approx. three quarter long driveway (my family has a working ranch in a very remote area) nobody found the phone. About 4 month later in mid April when the snow was gone my brother had another look and easily found it only feet away from where they all looked before, it was lying in the mud, by then it had gotten warmer, during the winter it got warmer, it got cold again, it snowed and it rained and all in all you'd think the phone would be dead. I told my brother to stick it in a bag of rice and to mail it to me, by the time he went to town and I received about a week passed and as soon as I got it I simply plugged it in. At first nothing at all happened and I got busy at my store, then a couple of hours later I came back in the office and not expecting anything I pushed the side button, Voiceover came on loud and clear asking for my PIN, as soon as I put it in the phone went crazy with dozens of notifications, messages and emails coming in. Since by then I had gotten a new phone this meant the SIM card was deactivated, yet after all this time in the harsh elements the phone connected to my store's WiFi and at first I thought all was working, in fact, I could make Facetime calls and all seemed normal. This lasted until I told one of my sighted employees with great astonishment that my phone had been found and was still working, but then he said that the screen was black. At first I thought screen curtain was on, but it was not and nothing we did made any difference. In other words, the phone was working normally except that the screen was obviously not working at all and later when I took it to an Apple store and they ran diagnostics they also told me the camera seemed to be damaged as well. The long story ended with me being able to get a replacement iPhone 6S Plus from Apple for a relatively small fee under the Apple Care Plus coverage I had purchased when I bought the phone, but still I thought it was pretty cool it survived this long period lying out in the open in harsh weather even though it didn't survive 100%, but all the touch gestures were working, all the radios from WiFi to Bluetooth and so on were working, just the display apparently was damaged as was the camera. I wouldn't be surprised if all would have been fine had this been an iPhone 8 or even an XR, XS, 11 or 11 Pro.

RE: just had a very scary iPhone experience
There was a storey from I believe mac rumours a few months back where someone lost an iPhone in to a pool within Disney land, After a number of days, they cleaned the pool out and got the phone which was then returned to the owner When the owner charged the phone back up it was still working.

Re: just had a very scary iPhone experience
Glad your phone is OK. If someone has such an accident with an older phone or wants to be sure, pour rice into a bag or a box, put your phone in the rice for a day or two and it should be dry and good as new.

Thanks for all your encouragement. My phone is working fine. I have made several calls since the incident happened, and have also used a bluetooth speaker and headset.

RE: just had a very scary iPhone experience
It really isn't a big deal especially with anything like the iPhone 8 which Josh has and newer. The iPhone 8 has a rating of IP67 which means you can actually submerse it under 3 feet of water for 30 minutes and it should not hurt the phone. Of course while Apple tests this, they wouldn't recommend you routinely do this, but just in case if it did fall into a full bath tub and you took it out nothing bad would happen. The latest iPhones are actually IP68 which means they can stand submersion under 2 meters (a bit over 6 and a half feet) for I think 30 minutes or 1 hour. Some of you may remember the story of my 6S Plus which I got after it was released in September 2016. Then at Christmas I visited my family in northern British Columbia, went for a walk when it was -30 degrees out and promptly lost my phone. Despite hours of search along the approx. three quarter long driveway (my family has a working ranch in a very remote area) nobody found the phone. About 4 month later in mid April when the snow was gone my brother had another look and easily found it only feet away from where they all looked before, it was lying in the mud, by then it had gotten warmer, during the winter it got warmer, it got cold again, it snowed and it rained and all in all you'd think the phone would be dead. I told my brother to stick it in a bag of rice and to mail it to me, by the time he went to town and I received about a week passed and as soon as I got it I simply plugged it in. At first nothing at all happened and I got busy at my store, then a couple of hours later I came back in the office and not expecting anything I pushed the side button, Voiceover came on loud and clear asking for my PIN, as soon as I put it in the phone went crazy with dozens of notifications, messages and emails coming in. Since by then I had gotten a new phone this meant the SIM card was deactivated, yet after all this time in the harsh elements the phone connected to my store's WiFi and at first I thought all was working, in fact, I could make Facetime calls and all seemed normal. This lasted until I told one of my sighted employees with great astonishment that my phone had been found and was still working, but then he said that the screen was black.

just had a very scary iPhone experience
Hi to all. Today while having a late lunch, I accidentally spilled a cup of soda and some of the soda got on my iPhone. I quickly turned off my iPhone and dried it off with a towel. I turned on my iPhone and it did come back on. The speaker at the top of my iPhone didn't sound all that good. I listened to a bit of my book using my bluetooth headphones and I then called apple. I was told to place my phone face down on a lint free cloth and let any liquid run out of my iPhone. My iPhone doesn't feel sticky at all which I guess is a good thing. I used a clean t-shirt from my drawer and my iPhone is now sitting face down on the t-shirt. What else should I do? I think my iPhone is okay since when I called apple, I could hear the person okay since I was using my iPhone on regular speaker. -- Joshua Hendrickson Joshua Hendrickson -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
