I was thinking about bringing my water-resistant iPhone 7 in the shower to play some music. I am aware of the IP67 rating and warranty, so no need to paste me that paragraph. đ
My phone wouldn't get any water in the shower since it would be high on a shelf. My main concern is steam/moisture from the shower, can that get into the phone and damage it even though it is water-resistant?
Thank you,

It's unlikely, but it is possible, and the warranty still won't cover liquid damage if it occurs. Get yourself a cheap bluetooth speaker to keep in the bathroom instead of taking your phone in the shower. All you need to happen is to try and pick it up once with soapy hands and have it smash on the tile.
It shouldn't. However, I'd give some thought to getting a waterproof bluetooth speaker and leaving the phone outside the bathroom. I suggest that not so much because of the water but because of the likelihood of a phone slipping out of your hands onto the hard surfaces. But, that's just my opinion.
OK, were the two of you copying each other's homework again? đ

Shhh! Don't tell the Hosts! I don't want detention.

Hi
iPhone 7 is splash and water resistant, but it is not waterproof and it should not be taken into the shower.
In addition to its other guidance regarding water exposure, Apple advises that iPhone 7 should not be used in environments such as steam rooms or other extremely humid conditions.
