Can I use the iPhone 11 in the shower? Can I use the iPhone 11 underwater? What to do if the iPhone 11 gets wet There are two things you should if your phone gets wet.
If you didn't use a waterproof case and your phone was exposed to water, you should immediately dry it off. Use a dry towel or cloth to wipe any moisture away from its exterior. If water has gotten inside the device, place it in a dry environment, and give it time to evaporate.
The rice trick mentioned before is because rice grains can help absorb moisture, but a dry room will work just as well. Do not turn the iPhone on or plug it into a charger until it is completely dry. An electronic device can be damaged by water, but the real danger is when an electric current is running through it.
Water is conductive, which can overload sensitive circuits and burn them out. Others, such as those by Catalyst can offer resistance in up to 10 meters of water, but don't specify a time limit. It's common to include a rating such as IP68, and no details. Some cases will just use the word "waterproof" and offer no more information than that.
Take that as a sign that water resistance is difficult — and take that as a sign that iPhones and water don't mix. We can all be extremely relieved that Apple has managed to make iPhones more water resistant. But we still can't be casual about dramatically dropping our phones in ice buckets, or comedically dropping them in a restroom sink.

AAPL: Water resistance in iPhones. Once it hit 30 minutes, we decided to leave it submerged a little longer just to see what would happen. We finally pulled the drone out of the water at the minute mark and ran through the same tests again.
Surprisingly, everything worked as normal. The screen was responsive, the volume and power buttons worked, and the two cameras were in working order as well. The speaker still sounded muffled when playing back the voice memo, but it was still audible. After wiping down the iPhone 12, we powered it down and let it sit for a few days to let it dry out completely. After letting it dry out for 72 hours, we wanted to do one final test to see if there had been any long-term damage as a result of the extreme underwater test.
The phone itself was completely dry, but its three lenses -- the ultrawide and wide-angle on the back, as well as the front camera -- had developed some fogging. At this point the battery had also completely drained, so we let the phone juice up for a while via the Lightning port before powering it back on. But once we did, the iPhone 12's screen showed a Diagnostics prompt. After trying to get through the Diagnostics prompt a few times, we plugged the iPhone 12 into a MacBook to see if we could reset the device.
It worked, but we still couldn't get past the Diagnostics screens. While we have no way of knowing exactly what caused this error to happen, it may have been lingering water damage, the shift in temperature between the cold water of Lake Tahoe to an indoor environment, or a combination of both. To see how the iPhone 12 fared a few weeks after submerging it in the lake, watch the video where we crack it open below.
Stay up-to-date on the latest news, reviews and advice on iPhones, iPads, Macs, services and software. Our highly unscientific test would suggest that the iPhone 12 can withstand very deep water and clearly meets the IP68 claim. But like all electronics, it does have a limit to how much water it can take -- and you should never intentionally submerge the phone in water lake or otherwise.
