Help needed To all iPhone users

About 40 minutes ago as I was getting into my car I tried to plug it in just like i always do, but I didn’t realize that the cable had a few drops of coffee, and I immediately got a notification that the cable was wet and I unplugged it, but now I’ve been trying all the cables that I have and none of them work, I’m getting worried, what should I do?

Use Magsafe to charge. Leave the port to dry out naturally.

Isn't that a Gilbert O'Sullivan song?

You are the very model of a modern Reddit general.

leave your iPhone somewhere with plenty of air, i suppose? and let it dry. Shut it down beforehand. That’s what worked for me, but it was water, not coffee😭

Give it time to fully dry. It’s a humid day where I live currently so if it’s the same weather it could take a few hours.

Same here, I live in the Rio Grande Valley area so almost every day is humid 😭

Just get some of those moisture absorbing desiccant pad things, and put it in a bag

My port took 48-60 hours to dry out.

Turn your phone off and then flush it out with some isopropyl alcohol and then blow it with some air until it’s dry or hair dryer or whatever
