Will my iphone 5 work again? - 1

I had my phone in the pocket of my pants with an otterbox armor case on while I jumped in the pool and of course the case failed! I seen a blotch of water on the inside of the case so I quickly took it out shook it dry and then tapped the power button to see if it was on it wasn't! I then hair dried it for 5 mins and then set it on my dashboard in my truck for a 5 hr drive to Salt Lake City then I put it in a bag with a big Cilica packet then in the morning I will dry it with a hair drier let it sit for an hour and then turn it on. So will it work and can my pictures be saved?

I had something similar happen to me. My ipod was on my bed and my mother decided to wash my sheets. She didn't notice that it was on my bed so my ipod wound up going in the washing machine through a full cycle. Long story short, she found it after she took the sheets out of the washer and told me about it. I put it in a bowl of rice for about a week and it works as good as new. The only problem is the water got into the camera and now my camera doesn't work. Hope this helps!
