How To Dry Out Wet AirPods (And What To Do If They’re Damaged)

To dry out wet AirPods, place them and the charging case (with the lid open) on a clean, dry cloth in a warm, non-humid area for at least one day. Alternatively, you can place them in a box with silica gel packets. After a day, try using them again by putting the earbuds back in the case, connecting them to your iPhone, and playing something.

If your AirPods do not respond, it may indicate severe damage. In this case, do not attempt to do anything else with them. Instead, take them to the nearest Apple Store and ask the technician to examine the device. If repairs are possible, the technician will provide information about the costs involved.

While the limited warranty does not cover accidental damage, an AppleCare+ subscription allows you to obtain repairs at a discounted price for up to two incidents per year. If repairs are not feasible, you also have the option to replace your AirPods. The Apple Store representative will assist you with the best course of action.
