My iPhone 5S touch screen isn't working. What should I do?

I had my iPhone in the bathroom while I was taking a shower and had it covered up like always… Then I tried going outside to take a couple photos and after the 2nd time the touch screen wouldn't do anything even though the phone was working perfectly fine before the photos… My buttons work perfectly fine, just not the screen…

You should take some rice (uncooked) and put it in a plastic bag. Turn off your phone and put it inside. Close the bag and leave it overnight. This will get rid of any water damage the phone might have. If this doesn't work, you may want to take your phone to a tech support shop.

  • Should I go to Apple or Verizon if the screen to my Iphone isn't working? My friend dropped my phone on the back of it the other day and totally blacked the screen out. It's on because it vibrates but i can't see anything on the screen. My friends taking me to get a new one and I don't know where to go to get it fixed right away. Should I go to Verizon, where I bought the phone? Or Apple where the phones made from. I really need it right away so please help!
  • My Iphone touch screen isn't working? I dropped it while bending over, and now whenever I go to slide to unlock, it doesn't move. When I go to power it off, the cancel works fine, but again, the slide bar won't work. I restarted it, and when I do this, it automatically brings up the passlock, and when I go to type it in, only the 1 - 2 - 3 and 5 work… So I can't unlock my iphone at all. Does anyone know what I can do to get it working?
  • My iPhone's touch screen isn't working. What can I do? The touch screen isn't responding to my swipe to even unlock, let alone do anything else. I thought I might be able to power it off but that involves the "slide to power off". The phone is an iPhone S and this has never happened before.
  • My iPhone 5s got wet but it still working. But the touch screen is a bit slow. Is it safe to use? I dropped my phone in water but pulled it out immediately. I powered it down, dried it off, and let it sit for 30 or so minutes. At first the screen was red but then turned on and everything works. The touch sometimes is unresponsive. Is it safe to use my phone? I'm letting it air dry by a window because rice can cause erosion… Should I use it?
