What to do when your smartphone gets water damage

Water damage is an emergency — every minute counts. Here's what you should and shouldn't do.

✅ Turn off your device immediately. ✅ Gently dry the outside with a soft cloth. ✅ Bring it to a repair specialist as soon as possible.

❌ Don't use a hair dryer or oven — heat damages components. ❌ Don't put it in rice — starch residue gets into the ports. ❌ Don't try to charge it before the device has been inspected.

At Blue Apple we inspect water damage for free and give honest advice: sometimes a cleaning is enough, sometimes parts need replacing. No cure, no pay — you only pay if we save your device.
