I walked into the ocean with my phone still in my pocket. I realized after about 5 minutes and it was working just fine after taking out of the water. The phone got to 0% and turned off (sub won't let me use the b word.) I tried charging it with the apple wireless charger a few hours later and it won't turn on. The phone will heat up as it normally does but still won't turn on. I've tried hard resetting but no luck either. What should I do?

Salt water is the worst possible thing you can get an electronic device wet with. It will cause extreme internal damage.

You are probably SOL.

rinse it with clean none salt water
