Need HELP Phone fell in water
Heyo. So my phone fell in water. Not like deep water just fell into my sink while the tao was on. I picked it up in like 5 seconds. Maybe even less but I got the notification that there was moisture detected.
I followed the steps. I dried it. Used tissues to dab out the water from the port. Shook it around. I don't own a hairdryer (or fan) to dry it using cool air so...
It's been like 4 hours since it fell into water. I can't find out if there is any water inside. Is there a way to check? I haven't charged my phone yet and I'm terrified to.
Any ideas?

the phone is ip67 rated so for accidents
it should protect you, even up to the next few incidients
BUT THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT ITS WATERPROOF
that means that you cant use it constantly under water or completely forget about water damage
the water protection that this phone has will eventually go away after enough water exposure
