No -- it is water resistant. See the following from https://www.apple.com/iphone-11/specs/


Splash, Water, and Dust Resistant

  • Rated IP68 (maximum depth of 2 meters up to 30 minutes) under IEC standard 60529


iPhone 11 is splash, water, and dust resistant and was tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 2 meters up to 30 minutes). Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.

No, the iPhone is not Waterproof. It is Water Resistant. It is different. Do not submerge the Phone in water.


While it is rated IP68 for Water Resistance, it is not suggested you swim or bathe with your iPhone. And understand the warranty does not cover any damage caused by water.
