Phone fell in toilet!!

The baby i was watching through my phone in the toilet! it was in the water for maybe 2 seconds and i grabbed it and through the case off and it didnt look like much water actually got to it. also it was still working so i assumed it was fine. Now it turned off all of a sudden and i submerged it in some brown rice. Do you have anymore suggestions for me to do? I really cannot afford a new one. please help!!

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service. Do this ASAP if there is any chance to prevent damage. Water damage automatically voids your warranty. See below to find out the cost of an out-of-warranty exchange.
