I took my phone out of the case today and noticed how dirty it, and the case was. I simply washed it off in the sink and it was nice and clean. I couldn’t help but think this was such a strange thing to do but also so natural. Also, I’ve done underwater selfies too. It’s a lot of fun!

Just remember to let the phone dry fully before charging (unless you’re charging wirelessly of course). Moisture while charging gradually damages both cable and port.

  iPhones are actually able to detect this and will give a pop-up saying moisture has been detected in the charging port and charging has been disabled out of safety concerns. It even shows you a bypass button for emergencies!

    I get a similar notification when I take Apple Watch surfing. Also took an iPhone 11 in a waterproof bag around my neck for pics, but it was a hassle to zip up the wetsuit, and the bag fogged up.

      A warning for what? Apple Watch doesn’t have a charging port

        Apple watch gives a moisture warning if the speaker port has water inside. Happens often after swimming or running in rain.

    Android also does this

But don't use soap, which reduces the surface tension and lets water get past seals. At the start of the pandemic I used soapy water on my iphone 11 and the faceid sensor broke immediatly. Apple replaced the phone, though.
