See this, About splash, water, and dust resistance of iPhone 7 and later - Apple Support and this statement contained in it.


Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. 


It isn't permanent. Contact Apple Support with any questions. Use the Get Support link at the top of the page.

iPhone's have a degree of water resistance, but they are not entirely water proof. There's a difference.


You cannot submerge the iPhones and expect them to continue working.

To prevent liquid damage, avoid these:

  • Swimming or bathing with your iPhone
  • Exposing your iPhone to pressurized water or high velocity water, such as when showering, water skiing, wake boarding, surfing, jet skiing, and so on
  • Using your iPhone in a sauna or steam room
  • Intentionally submerging your iPhone in water
  • Operating your iPhone outside the suggested temperature ranges or in extremely humid conditions
  • Dropping your iPhone or subjecting it to other impacts
  • Disassembling your iPhone, including removing screws
