i just dropped my iPhone 6s in water. Was completely submerged in just enough water to cover whole phone. Was only in water for a max of 2 seconds. I immediately was able to dry off exterior and turned it completely off.

Should I turn it on? How long to possibly dry?

Help!

I've heard that putting it in a small bag of dry uncooked rice overnight is really good.

I've never tried it myself though, so be cautious about my 'advice'.

thanks for the advice.
I took a chance and plugged into my pc and successfully did a backup. (I don’t use iCloud to backup).

so far the only thing that appears to no longer work is the ear receiver...speakerphone, headphones and mic all seem to be ok
