Dropped My iPhone 15 in the Bathtub, What Should I Do?

Hey everyone! I was taking a bath when my mom called, and I accidentally pushed my iPhone 15 into the tub while trying to grab my hairdryer. It was submerged for just a couple of seconds. I got the SIM card out and turned off the phone right away. Should I be worried about this? Should I check my insurance for coverage? Also, how long should I let it dry just to be safe? Thanks!

No insurance typically covers water damage, but since the iPhone 15 is waterproofed, just let it dry out. Make sure to clean the charging port with some isopropyl alcohol to be safe!

OceanWaves99: Actually, some AppleCare plans do cover water damage, so itโ€™s worth checking your policy!

If your phone isn't cracked, you should be fine! The iPhone 15 is designed to handle brief water exposure, so don't panic just yet.
