What to Do If You Drop Your Phone in Water
Follow these steps immediately to give your phone the best chance of recovery.
Power off immediately
Turn your phone off straight away - do not try to charge it or turn it back on. Powering on a wet phone can cause short circuits and further damage.
Remove the case and SIM
Remove your phone case and SIM card tray to allow any trapped water to escape. Do not use a hairdryer or put the phone in rice - these can cause additional damage.
Bring it in as soon as possible
The sooner you bring your phone in, the better the chances of a successful repair. Corrosion sets in quickly - ideally bring it in within hours, not days.
