Rice draws moisture from moist things. Rice it up

Scrolling in the settings is not smooth, quite sticky

Putting the device in a hygroscopic area is what matters. Sometime a dry, ventilated area is enough, but putting it in rice or some chemical product ( the stuff you find in packaging ) Also woodshavings can be used, as long as the surrounding temperature is high ( and preferably dry ) enough
The choice for rice is mostly made because of availbility en cheap price. And the tiny Chinese men who com to repair the device like to eat the rice better then woodshavings.

Thank you for bringing up this topic. I agree that it's important to share accurate information on how to save a wet device.
While your suggestion of using a dry area with sufficient airflow is helpful, it would be great if you could provide some reasoning or evidence behind why putting a wet device in rice is not effective. Simply saying 'trust me bro' isn't helpful for those seeking reliable solutions.
Perhaps sharing personal experiences or linking to trustworthy sources could support your argument and help people make informed decisions. Thank you for your contribution to this discussion!
Edit: yes I used ChatGPT

WTF does that mean? They added features. It's a "dot" release which is usually just a few features and bug fixes.

I have both Apple magsafe battery pack and Zeera magsafe battery pack. The Apple original one is great in all ways except the price and battery capacity. So I bought the Zeera one as backup. It works better in battery capacity and price. Also can be used as a stand.

While that's true, I never suggested that. You're responding to the wrong person.

Resetting settings and restoring the firmware are invasive, simply restarting the phone isn’t.

I have personally used a container of rice to dry a phone out before. As it worked for me quite well, I will continue to maintain the belief in rice as a remedy for wet electronics.
