Water and electronics don’t mix well, due to electrical shorting, due to conductive debris, and due to subsequent corrosion.

Use a fan or the breeze from an air conditioning (flowing, dry air) and place the iPad where the air might be able to dry it.


If drying for a few days fails to resolve this, make an appointment with Apple or your preferred service vendor, and have them take a look. Rice is not recommended.


Water damage is not covered by warranty.
