4 Rice Fixes Water Damage
Dropping a device into water is a nightmare scenario for many people, so it makes sense that users will search for quick fixes. Putting your phone in uncooked rice is one method that’s almost universally recommended. But does it work? Unfortunately, the evidence points to no. In fact, it could actually make your situation worse by speeding up corrosion due to the starches and residue in the uncooked grain. Your best bet is to take your device in for repairs, or worst case, just let it air dry on a shelf or table.
