On Sunday morning I dropped my phone in the toilet. I immediately removed the phone, wiped it down as best I could and tried to turn it off. Unfortunately, the touch screen refused to allow a full swipe for off and after a few tries stopped responding altogether. How can I recover photos from the water damaged iPhone?
