Is 24 hours long enough for iPhone in rice fix?

Okay so I was brushing my teeth and my iPhone 4s was sitting on the shelf above my sink and fell in. I have one of those flip up leather cases but it wasn't closed. I grabbed the phone and dried it with a towel. I then took it into my room to get my hair dryer and while doing this I got a text message. The phone was working perfectly. After doing some research I know now that I should have turned off the phone straight away but unfortunately I didn't. I then took off the leather case and held a cool hair dryer to the phone. While I did this my sister looked up the rice drying method and told me to turn off the phone immediately. Its now been sitting in rice in my airing cupboard for 24 hours and I'm wondering would be safe to turn it on now considering the phone was only under the tap for like 3 seconds and wasn't actually submerged in water and the phone was working 100% fine before I switched it off.

Put your iphone in the cool and dry ventilated places at least 3 days.

  • 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?
