How to Protect Your iPad from Water Damage and What to Do If Accidents Happen

If you own an iPad, you are aware of how much you depend on it for work, play, and everything else! Water damage is one of the main risks to the health of your iPad. Accidents happen all the time, and if your iPad gets wet, the water can seep into the internal parts of the device, leading to corrosion, short circuits, and even total failure.  We at TechMan provide the best iPhone repair & services in Dubai, and in this article, we will go over how to prevent water damage to your iPad and what to do in the event that it does happen.

Prevention is better

The old saying ‘an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure’ is especially true when it comes to water damage. Here are some simple and effective ways to protect your iPad from water damage:

 

Use a waterproof case: Invest in a high-quality, waterproof case for your iPad. Choose cases with IP68 or higher ratings to keep your iPad safe even if an accident happen.

Apply a screen protector: A screen protector with a waterproof coating or a tempered glass protector can help prevent water from seeping into your iPad’s screen. 

Keep your iPad away from water sources: As obvious as it sounds, avoiding using your iPad near water sources, such as sinks, toilets, and bathtubs, can significantly reduce the risk of water damage.

Avoid humid environments: Highly humid climates can also affect your iPad, so be careful to use it in a well-ventilated area; if you live in a humid area, invest in a good dehumidifier.

What to do if your iPad gets wet

Even when you are careful, sometimes accidents can still happen. If your iPad ever gets wet, you need to act fast to prevent the water damage from escalating; the sooner you respond, the better!

Turn off your iPad: If your iPad is wet, your first step should be to immediately turn it off to prevent any short circuits that could cause further damage.

Remove accessories: Take off any accessories, such as cases or screen protectors, to help your iPad dry faster.

Dry the exterior: Gently pat the exterior of your iPad with a soft cloth or paper towel to dry it.

Use desiccants: Place your iPad in a container filled with desiccants, such as silica gel packets or uncooked rice, to absorb any remaining moisture from the device.

Unfortunately I gave them my sons iPad for repair and they fix the screen and change the battery as they show me in invoice but the iPad not charging and even when I asked them to check it he promised me they will schedule to pick up but I think they don’t care because they got paid and forget the customer feeling. Thanks for ignoring
It’s scam they will tell its original parts and will charge you more but at the end its duplicates and it will not last longer very bad experience

I asked 3 well known companies to fix my Mac and I was told by all 3, that the Mac couldn’t be repaired and I had to buy a new one.I contacted Techman, they came to my house and collected the Mac, sent me the repair report within hours, dropped the Mac back to my fully fixed and operational and for a really good price, the next day.Great service. Efficient. Convenient. Good value.

I was initially quite apprehensive to give them my laptop because I couldn't be sure whether they were legitimate. Since I had faith in them, I ultimately turned in my laptop for repair. They changed the times to suit my convenience and are really responsive. I found their pick-up and drop-off service to be quite convenient. They installed additional services and fixed my Mac's battery issue! I heartily endorse them! Cost-effective and reliable!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had a broken screen on my iPad 9th gen and needed a quick, reliable fix since much of my work depends on it. I reached out to Techman, and I’m so glad I did! They repaired my device at an unbeatable price and in no time at all. I’m genuinely pleased with the service. The new screen even came with a one-year warranty, which gave me even more confidence in their work. I would definitely recommend Techman for any Apple device repair—they really know what they're doing!

Cracked my Apple Watch screen and they returned it as good as new. The material they use to replace the screen feels and works exactly the same as the original. There's no change in the reactiveness on the touch screen which is great. It only took 2 days. Thanks team!
