Film Friday: How To Save Your Phone If You Drop It In Water

Surprisingly, 19% of all phone users have dropped their device in a toilet at some point. We don’t judge. Minute Hacks has you covered though with some of their top simple phone-saving suggestions:

• Take your phone out of the toilet immediately (hand washing can wait).
• Dry it off with some toilet paper (or equivalent – super absorbent is best)
• If it’s an iPhone, but it in a ziplock with rice ASAP.
• If it’s a different model, take out the battery/etc and place all pieces individually into a ziplock with rice.
• Be sure to check the white indicator strip (in the headphone jack of iPhones/in the battery section of other models) and see if it’s turned red. If it has, cut and paste a new piece of white paper overtop and take it to your service provider for repair (fingers crossed for a new phone!).
