According to yahoo.com putting a wet iPhone in rice is not recommended as it can actually cause more harm than good. rice can get stuck in the charging port or other openings, leading to further damage to the phone. Apple support advises against using rice and instead recommends gently shaking the phone to remove excess water, using a lint-free cloth to dry the exterior, and allowing the phone to air dry for at least 24 hours before attempting to turn it on. It is also important to avoid using heat sources such as a hairdryer, as this can cause damage to the internal components of the phone.
