The problem is that usually phones don't get submerged in distilled water, so what happens with water from a pool, toilet, or any other sources of water have salts dissolved in it, that don't evaporate with water. Only water evaporates, leaving behind potential salt sediments that can form bridges in the circuits, changing electric currents that could render the phone useless.
So would it theoretically help that after your phone has been submerged in natural water you flush it with distilled water to get out any salt? Afterwards you let the distilled water dry off.
@@user-wc6pp4mi6t I think you're confusing distilled water with deionised water. Distilled water will still have ions (it has just been purified through the process of distillation) and it will still conduct electricity
Tap water/common water contain minerals and not just salt. You could actually clean your electronic devices internal with just pure isopropyl alcohol than just distilled water but either way distilled water doesn't contain minerals if properly done, so you could use it in electronics. You could actually run PC underwater as long as the water remains 99.9% distilled.

If openings in the chassis are big enough to let rice dust in after you've submerged it, you've got more to be worried about than a bit of dust. Besides, latest iPhones are IP 68 rated, which explicitly stipulates they are water and dust resistant. Rice won't harm it at all, as long as you leave the SIM try in.

Apple Explained: Why You Shouldn’t Put Your iPhone In Rice Apple Experienced: It worked for me before, and I’ll keep recommending it if anyone asks. Sorry bud.
@@Alphaca31 Then just cover the holes! Tech companies want you buy a brand new phone instead of a cheap bag of rice. But I’ll always try my basmati, parboiled or long grain first lol
@Swiftypop Still got my phone from a number of generations and it works fine with updates and all, been through 2 bags of rice and it’s still strong like a rock too.
Tip: If you put your phone in a Ziploc bag before putting it in the rice (make sure it's sealed tight), it will keep the rice from damaging the phone! :)
I’ve heard silica packets do the same thing and they’re contained in a packet so that might be a better approach than rice? I’ve put my iPhone in rice before tho after dropping it in the tub and it fixed it so idk who to believe🤷♀️
The phone "fixed" itself (as in the water dried out or moved to a spot that it isn't harmful yet) . The rice did nothing. If you had just placed your phone on the table for 24 hours with nothing, and dried out the outside with a towel, it would cause the same results
A few years back, a water bottle came open in the same bag as my laptop and I thought for sure it was fried, but I shut it down and let it dry anyway - luckily it did end up perfectly fine. I also put it in a tray of rice upside down to let the water evaporate more easily... but really that's just the Rice Express Lane into your laptop via your speakers. Fast-forward to a quick repair I did a month ago and, even though I thought I had shaken all the rice out, and it's been three years, I found lots of rice. I think the thick neoprene laptop sleeve it was in when the water spilled probably did more good and absorbed most of the water before it even got to my device. It certainly absorbed thousands of times more water than the rice invaders did. TL;DR rice in your laptop makes for a very expensive maraca
Those methods will never get rid of moisture because as long as the case remains closed it can’t escape completely . Best is to open the case, disconnect the battery, (ideally also unplug all connector cables) use a spray electronic solvent cleaner to displace and/or absorb any moisture in tight nooks and crannies such as in connectors plugs and sockets and let dry for AT LEAST 48hrs with cool forced ventilation. Even when appears dry, any left over moisture condensation will likely cause problems. Do it thoroughly and do it once.
Unless you live out here in AZ haha. Dry crazy heat right now. I actually have an iPhone sitting outside under my deck drying out from falling in the toilet. It’s an oven out there, should dry it up completely within the hour. Lol
This happened to me. I dried my phone with a paper towel, took the sim card out, made a nice little igloo with cloth towels, put the phone in the inside, and had a small hairdryer blowing low heat and the lowest setting on it over night. I would flip the phone around every few hours. The next day, less than 24 hours, about 12 hours after it got wet, the phone was back to normal. My hack worked just as well but faster.
Yeah idk about this I’ve had several issues with water under the camera glass and rice is the only thing I’ve tried that fixes it Soooo that alone leads me to believe rice works better at getting water out of the whole phone
I don’t even see how one could water damage a modern iPhone to begin with. They’re so resistant that you’d have to somehow leave your phone underwater for more than 30 minutes to cause damage, at least according to the specs.
I just dropped my iPhone 12 mini in a stream and the water was so high I couldn't find it. After two days with no rain, I went back and the water was low enough for me to literally see my iphone laying there. I picked it up, removed the case, shock out as much water as I could, accidentally hit the power button, and it showed the low battery symbol on the screen. So I took it home and put it in tupperware with rice and will give it 48 hours before trying to charge it and power it on. But I'm confident it will be already, and I'm not removing it from the rice worrying about rice dust. If it still works after being under water for 2 days, I'm not worried about rice dust killing it.
Well buddy, I was given iPhones that had gone through a washer! Put them in a sealed bag of rice in my hot garage! Boom works perfectly??? Have saved many phones this way???

Wow A video (sort of a tutorial) in under 10min in 2021 Actually 2 min video Thank you sir You're geting like and this comment just because of the duration of the video.
actually i always put my phone on rice when it get wet. and it worked again. instead of leaving phone on air better to put phone into sillica gel to dry it quickly without having worried about dust etc
using an external heat source is the best idea, actually. removing the sim tray is necessary, but having a water resistant phone means it’s also hard for water to get out anywhere else besides the sim tray. a heat source will help the water evaporate significantly, just not too hot
I disagree. My girlfriend's iPhone X wasn't working due to water damage. We let it sit in rice for a couple minutes and it started working again. I was shocked how fast it worked because it was only a couple minutes.
exactly only reason apple says dont use rice is because it works and if people dont use it and there phone breaks they go buy a brand new phone and apple makes more money off of them
Actually tho, water is way more likely to enter a phone than particles of rice, only if your phone have a giant breach but then the water or the rice arent the problem Also, the rice should be static, you wont shake the place where the rice and the phone are, so there is even less movement to theorically, move sediment inside the phone Finally, yes, rice is awesome to dry things, the problem is the salt dissolved in water what can damage your phone, not the fact of rice itself If your phone doesnt work properly, its because the salt left inside and the presence of rice didnt change that much
Does this technique work for ipad? If so, I wish you would have posted this video 4 years ago when i put my iPad under water because I was young and retarded🥲
Back when I used to have an iPhone for work, I'd thoroughly wash it off in the sink once or twice a week with dish soap. Didn't even have a case on the phone; the water never did it any harm.
Nope, it’s best to turn the phone off immediately and get the phone professionally taken apart and clean out all signs of water damage ASAP before it’s corrodes any electronic on the logic board or other internals. A water damaged phone has the best chance of survival if it’s professionally cleaned out from the inside out as soon as water has entered the phone. Like you literally need to have it cleaned out the same day or even better which in a few hours. Water damage is like a cancer for a smartphone you have the best chance to stop it if you do something about it early on.
If your device has gone through high salinity ocean water or in chlorinated pool water, it’s best to first displace that by rinsing under a faucet with clean water, or better yet, 70%+ alcohol. THEN you may air dry the device without risking mineral deposits inside the device or without weakening the adhesive seals.
The best thing to do is power down your device and open up your phone up with properly fitted screwdriver. This will increase the likelihood of saving your liquid damaged device 10 fold
No rice, no air, no drying! If your phone is already don't work, it's too late to dry it. Go to service center to recover it. Otherwise you have much chance to get UNRECOVERABLE damage to your boards while device is turned on.
i remember my sister dropped her phone into the toilet and panicked and put her phone into a box of rice. a couple hours later she took it out and it turned on but it was very glitchy so we took it to best buy to see if they could help fix the phone and as we where showing that the screen was unresponsive to touch the phone suddenly started working again and we went home a bit embarrassed. my advice? just dry you phone off and give it time.
It's a thing because it works. We did this with my gf's iPhone X. Totally works if you have water damage. We tried drying it and letting it sit like the video suggests, but none of it worked. Even went to the Apple store to get it looked, employee said it was finished. Wasted time at the Apple store. We ended up putting the iPhone in rice and it worked!
yeah in my experience its worked extremely well tbh. Living on a farm, phones falling into water happens more than id like to admit, and have used the method of leaving phones in rice for 24 hours at least a dozen times and have never had any issues. Only time i have had an issue is when i just left it sit for 48 hours NOT in rice and the phone wouldnt turn on... Besides the part about grains getting into the charging port i feel like apple gives this advice so that its more likely that you'll need to replace the device. Im absolutely an apple fan but there has been more shady business practices than giving "not quite the truth, not quite a lie" instructions to make more profit.
@@LikelyLagging I'm an Apple fan also, but their shady business practices also turn me off. They need to quit that shit. Like throttling their chips because of "battery issues". We get you need to sell iPhones, but c'mon you guys already winning give us a break Apple. Do some good...
Oxidation, is a chemical reaction in which oxygen joins other substances to form oxides. Whether present in air or water, on a material, oxidation causes corrosion in the material. Corrosion is a slow and progressive deterioration of a metal, it can occur by oxidation, by contact with chemicals, by microorganisms or by the electrical union of two metals. (galvanized corrosion) This can accelerate due to an increase in temperature. It is electrochemical corrosion in which some microorganisms can cause corrosion on submerged metal surfaces. In other words, phone aint "water-proof", however, the iPhone circuit-board is covered with a sponge-like material, I believe this is rice and why they mark the iPhone as "Water resistance". IT is IMPORTANT to clean your rice. ALSO if you are going to use rice as a method to absorb moister, I would recommend: Putting clean dry rice inside a coffe filter, or maybe put your phone inside the coffe filter, or putting the coffe filter inside your phone then put the rice inside the coffe filter ontop of your phone inside the rice then ontop of a coffe filter which is inside the rice ontop of a bowl of rice, preferably inside a cold dark basement.
What you can do is get some silica gel packets, don’t get loose silica gel beads, they’ll be just as bad as rice. Put your phone in a Tupperware, or a plastic bag with a few silica gel packs and leave it there for a few days. Don’t take ones out of food containers because they’ll have food residue on them you don’t want in your phone, buy new ones at a store.
cool fact : i've forgot my airpods pro in my pocket of my pant . So, after they're passed a cold wash.... they're worked ! and they're died because my parents put in a bowl of rice..... ...Don't trust the rice.
When my cousin is having their island hoping tour in Coron Palawan, he accidentally dropped his iphone7 and plunged to the shallow depths (close to 2-storey high) of sea water. ‘Twas recovered; however the phone was already shut. As told by the Locals, he then used a bowl of uncooked rice to speed up “drying up” and remove any moist therein. Voila, as quickly as it plunged and got wet, in less 12hrs his iPhone is up and running like no other!
In a beach party organised by my company, I dropped my iphone 11 in the salt water. And it was lost for about 30 minutes. 40-50 of my colleagues helped me find it. And once found I simply turned it off, washed it under tap water thoroughly(the bartender was amused) and turned it on after 36 hours. No damage at all. Been close to 18 months now and running good.
I don't agree but i also don't disagree. First of all, if you have a water damage and your phone is not working, DO NOT WAIT. Take it ASAP to mobile technican to open it, dry it out with alcohol and put it in ultrasonic cleaner, if you wait you can have a corrosion on the motherboard which can cause more damage than it was before and can damage any parts in the phone.
Worked in repairs and I’ve seen people damage the charging port because rice got stuck in there and they tried to take it out. So water damage and charging port replacement 🤦🏾♂️

actually i always put my phone on rice when it get wet. and it worked again. instead of leaving phone on air better to put phone into sillica gel to dry it quickly without having worried about dust etc
yeah making the water seep deeper will prevent internal damage, bravo
This is great,
Would you be able to answer why the speaker holes on the iPhone arnt symmetrical?
using an external heat source is the best idea, actually. removing the sim tray is necessary, but having a water resistant phone means it’s also hard for water to get out anywhere else besides the sim tray. a heat source will help the water evaporate significantly, just not too hot
No one:
MO: FOREIGN CONTAMINANT!
Did you notice all the recent titles in WHY
Oops. I thought it said "Why you shouldn't put rice in your IPhone."
But..is it same on android?
I disagree. My girlfriend's iPhone X wasn't working due to water damage. We let it sit in rice for a couple minutes and it started working again. I was shocked how fast it worked because it was only a couple minutes.
exactly only reason apple says dont use rice is because it works and if people dont use it and there phone breaks they go buy a brand new phone and apple makes more money off of them
@CoolGaM3r215 👍 the rice works. This is why it's recommended online by so many people and not by Apple.
Hey man. What software do you use to make your videos? It looks incredible
Actually tho, water is way more likely to enter a phone than particles of rice, only if your phone have a giant breach but then the water or the rice arent the problem
Also, the rice should be static, you wont shake the place where the rice and the phone are, so there is even less movement to theorically, move sediment inside the phone
Finally, yes, rice is awesome to dry things, the problem is the salt dissolved in water what can damage your phone, not the fact of rice itself
If your phone doesnt work properly, its because the salt left inside and the presence of rice didnt change that much
Does this technique work for ipad? If so, I wish you would have posted this video 4 years ago when i put my iPad under water because I was young and retarded🥲
Air drying or blowing cool air take ages to remove inside moisture, unless the device is disassembled. Rice or Silica gel is much faster.
nope, trust me
My iPhone got water damages today around the time you posted this video, so now I’m feeling quite paranoid.
Back when I used to have an iPhone for work, I'd thoroughly wash it off in the sink once or twice a week with dish soap. Didn't even have a case on the phone; the water never did it any harm.
Nope, it’s best to turn the phone off immediately and get the phone professionally taken apart and clean out all signs of water damage ASAP before it’s corrodes any electronic on the logic board or other internals. A water damaged phone has the best chance of survival if it’s professionally cleaned out from the inside out as soon as water has entered the phone. Like you literally need to have it cleaned out the same day or even better which in a few hours. Water damage is like a cancer for a smartphone you have the best chance to stop it if you do something about it early on.
And in that process, sell another half of your kidney
@@SrikantLive I'm not sure the point you're getting at if you are trying to start a counter argument / discussion.
@@spectaculartech The point is it costs a lot in many countries to have the water damaged phone repaired by professional technician.
Very informative. Haven’t dropped my phone or had it wet for one year running. Good to know!
Aren't iPhones IP68 waterproof now?
If your device has gone through high salinity ocean water or in chlorinated pool water, it’s best to first displace that by rinsing under a faucet with clean water, or better yet, 70%+ alcohol. THEN you may air dry the device without risking mineral deposits inside the device or without weakening the adhesive seals.
"Apple recommends...." - this is where i stopped listening.
i kept having wall-e flashbacks every time he said foreign contaminant
The best thing to do is power down your device and open up your phone up with properly fitted screwdriver. This will increase the likelihood of saving your liquid damaged device 10 fold
I've put an iPhone5 in a Ziploc bag with silica gel sachets - worked !
No rice, no air, no drying! If your phone is already don't work, it's too late to dry it. Go to service center to recover it. Otherwise you have much chance to get UNRECOVERABLE damage to your boards while device is turned on.
i remember my sister dropped her phone into the toilet and panicked and put her phone into a box of rice. a couple hours later she took it out and it turned on but it was very glitchy so we took it to best buy to see if they could help fix the phone and as we where showing that the screen was unresponsive to touch the phone suddenly started working again and we went home a bit embarrassed. my advice? just dry you phone off and give it time.
So dipping phones in rice is actually a thing
It's a thing because it works. We did this with my gf's iPhone X. Totally works if you have water damage. We tried drying it and letting it sit like the video suggests, but none of it worked. Even went to the Apple store to get it looked, employee said it was finished. Wasted time at the Apple store. We ended up putting the iPhone in rice and it worked!
yeah in my experience its worked extremely well tbh. Living on a farm, phones falling into water happens more than id like to admit, and have used the method of leaving phones in rice for 24 hours at least a dozen times and have never had any issues. Only time i have had an issue is when i just left it sit for 48 hours NOT in rice and the phone wouldnt turn on... Besides the part about grains getting into the charging port i feel like apple gives this advice so that its more likely that you'll need to replace the device. Im absolutely an apple fan but there has been more shady business practices than giving "not quite the truth, not quite a lie" instructions to make more profit.
@@LikelyLagging I'm an Apple fan also, but their shady business practices also turn me off. They need to quit that shit. Like throttling their chips because of "battery issues". We get you need to sell iPhones, but c'mon you guys already winning give us a break Apple. Do some good...
It work for me but I completely remove phone part And cover some part that rice can stick
@@PCgeekinfo any company would never do that if they did how can they sell more phone?
Oxidation, is a chemical reaction in which oxygen joins other substances to form oxides.
Whether present in air or water, on a material, oxidation causes corrosion in the material.
Corrosion is a slow and progressive deterioration of a metal, it can occur by oxidation, by contact with chemicals, by microorganisms or by the electrical union of two metals. (galvanized corrosion)
This can accelerate due to an increase in temperature.
It is electrochemical corrosion in which some microorganisms can cause corrosion on submerged metal surfaces.
In other words, phone aint "water-proof", however, the iPhone circuit-board is covered with a sponge-like material, I believe this is rice and why they mark the iPhone as "Water resistance".
IT is IMPORTANT to clean your rice.
ALSO if you are going to use rice as a method to absorb moister, I would recommend: Putting clean dry rice inside a coffe filter, or maybe put your phone inside the coffe filter, or putting the coffe filter inside your phone then put the rice inside the coffe filter ontop of your phone inside the rice then ontop of a coffe filter which is inside the rice ontop of a bowl of rice, preferably inside a cold dark basement.
What you can do is get some silica gel packets, don’t get loose silica gel beads, they’ll be just as bad as rice. Put your phone in a Tupperware, or a plastic bag with a few silica gel packs and leave it there for a few days. Don’t take ones out of food containers because they’ll have food residue on them you don’t want in your phone, buy new ones at a store.
I thought you would say
Take it to the next Apple store so you can spend the entire salary to repair it.
cool fact : i've forgot my airpods pro in my pocket of my pant . So, after they're passed a cold wash.... they're worked !
and they're died because my parents put in a bowl of rice.....
...Don't trust the rice.
When my cousin is having their island hoping tour in Coron Palawan, he accidentally dropped his iphone7 and plunged to the shallow depths (close to 2-storey high) of sea water. ‘Twas recovered; however the phone was already shut. As told by the Locals, he then used a bowl of uncooked rice to speed up “drying up” and remove any moist therein. Voila, as quickly as it plunged and got wet, in less 12hrs his iPhone is up and running like no other!
Till now I was thinking iphone was waterproof
Can you make a video on why apple didnt remove the head phone jack in the mac
Well you can also keep silica gel packs near to fasten the process
Finally a video thats helpful and informative
In a beach party organised by my company, I dropped my iphone 11 in the salt water. And it was lost for about 30 minutes. 40-50 of my colleagues helped me find it. And once found I simply turned it off, washed it under tap water thoroughly(the bartender was amused) and turned it on after 36 hours. No damage at all. Been close to 18 months now and running good.
Why apple change default ringtone reflection
I don't agree but i also don't disagree. First of all, if you have a water damage and your phone is not working, DO NOT WAIT. Take it ASAP to mobile technican to open it, dry it out with alcohol and put it in ultrasonic cleaner, if you wait you can have a corrosion on the motherboard which can cause more damage than it was before and can damage any parts in the phone.
what’s the background music you use it’s so peaceful 🥺
Pro tip: If you wanna put your phone in rice to dry your phone, instead, don’t get wet
Worked in repairs and I’ve seen people damage the charging port because rice got stuck in there and they tried to take it out. So water damage and charging port replacement 🤦🏾♂️
How much does Apple pay you?
*Apple realizing putting iPhones in rice can cause damage that would need to be repaired* : "New science just in tells us rice is the best solution!"
Please make a video on coding, I know it's not related to Apple, but I really want to know how to learn it!
