Apple Recommends Alternatives to Placing Wet iPhones in Uncooked Rice for Recovery

Apple is challenging a common practice among iPhone users dealing with wet devices. The company is discouraging the use of uncooked rice to dry out wet iPhones, contrary to conventional wisdom.

Traditionally, when electronic devices, including iPhones, come into contact with liquid, users often resort to placing them in a container filled with uncooked rice.

The belief is that rice grains effectively absorb moisture and aid in the drying process. However, Apple now warns against this method, suggesting that it can potentially damage the iPhone.

In its updated guidance for handling phones exposed to liquids, Apple recommends allowing the device to air-dry on its own rather than resorting to submerging it in uncooked rice. The company’s cautionary advice is likely to reshape the approach users take when attempting to salvage wet iPhones.

The use of rice as a drying agent has been a long-standing practice and is based on the idea that the grains can absorb moisture.

However, Apple’s warning suggests that this method may not be as effective and could potentially lead to harm. It is important for iPhone users to consider and adhere to the updated guidance provided by Apple to ensure the best possible outcome when dealing with liquid exposure.
