How long should I leave my wet iphone in rice? - 1

It only had a little water on it, maybe a 1/8th of a cup. I dried it off as fast as I could, and turned it off. I got my brother to take it apart, and dry some of the main parts. The back is still off of it, and both of them are sitting in the rice. Since it wasn't dropped in water, and its apart in rice, how long should i leave it?

Leave it there until next Monday and get a new brother instead.

How long should I leave my wet iPhone in rice? Seriously? Did i miss something here?

Only for a few hours. Then when you take it out you want to stop using it for at minimum 2 days to let whatever is left evaporate. Unless you want to short out and destroy the insides of the phone.

I know it's hard to be without your tiny rectangle but if you don't want to be without one longer you will give it the time needed.

The best is 2 days. That should get every drop of water out. If you turn it on immediately after a few hours, there could be droplets in the circuitry, causing your phone to fry.

Hope this helps.

  • Water logged iphone? How long do I leave it in rice? My iphone SE was sitting in a big puddle on the counter for about 15 min before I noticed. The phone was still in working condition but had a few dark and blurry spots on the screen. I went to get rice and the spots seemed to have spread. I put rice in a ziplock bag and completely covered my phone in the rice. The bag was sealed and I'm wondering how long I need to leave the phone inside? I need to use my phone the next day and I'm not sure if it will be alright.
  • How long will it take for the rice to soak up the wet iphone? There's a blue line on top of the screen of the phone, so i'm guessing that's water? So like how long should i have the phone in the rice.right now it's been an hour. And by the way i already turned it on so the battery will die right? And once how long it takes for the water to soak up from the rice? Charge it and then see if it works?
  • How long should I leave my wet iphone in rice? I was pouring milk into my cereal bowl this morning, and the milk container ended up pouring all on my iphone 4S. When it got wet, it wasn't completely soaked, but it's not like it was just a splash of milk either. I think the milk managed to get in some of the cracks. I really don't think it is as bad as an iphone being dropped in water completely, so I'm thinking that I don't need to keep it in rice for as long. How long should I keep it in the rice?
