"Apple's Warning: Avoid Using Rice to Dry Your Wet iPhone"

Apple warns against using rice to dry out wet iPhones, as it may slow down the drying process and damage internal components. Instead, Apple recommends tapping the water out, waiting 30 minutes, attempting to charge the iPhone, leaving it in a dry area for 24 hours, and retesting the connector. If issues persist, users should consider alternative charging methods or contact Apple for repair or replacement.
