A shortcut that helps remove water from the iPhone-headset!

In ancient times, phones and water were first-class enemies. Of course, it was the water that wins and destroys the phone immediately, except in rare cases, the phone could have been saved, but in the long run, the rust virus spreads and eventually perishes. Now this fear has begun to dissipate, especially with the increase in waterproof smartphones. However, the water can still mute the speakerphone, which is the place most vulnerable to water ingress. Now a shortcut has been provided on iOS 12 that works to get this water out of those headphones.

To master installing shortcuts, it is best to review previous articles explaining how to install the shortcut step by step from this - Link - or this Link.

It is worth noting that iPhones are not equal in their water resistance. We find that the iPhone XS and XS Max their water resistance standard is IP68, and the iPhone XR, iPhone X, iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are all IP67 standard. These phones with these water resistance standards are not technically water resistant in the understandable sense, but under certain circumstances we mentioned in This article And we mentioned the methods to be followed if the phone fell into the water. That is why Apple does not cover water-damaged devices under warranty. But if your phone was exposed to water under any circumstances and water entered the speakers, this shortcut can help you get that water out just like the water eject tool in the Apple Watch, where you can play the bassy tone for about ten seconds, which leads to the water pushing For the outside of the speakers as well as the device.

As you can see, the shortcut does a good job of getting water out of the speaker. The method is definitely not perfect and leaves some residue after the tone ends. You can turn the shortcut back on until you feel that all the water is gone. ”However, we do not recommend it. The tone is intense, and it is not possible to predict whether repeated use will be dangerous to the speakers or not. It is sufficient to use it one or two times.

This shortcut is not the only way to get water out of the speaker on the iPhone - and if you prefer to use an app in the App Store, you can download the Sonic app:
