How do I get water out from the touch screen

My son wore his watch accidentally in the tub . I put it in a bag of rice but it still has water in the touch screen . How do I get it dry behind the touch screen ?

Drying things out in rice is a myth. It never works. The only thing outside of removing the touch screen is to put it upside down on an air vent or blow dry it. Dont use a lot of direct heat, but sweep back and forth. Hopefully the water in it wont roll around and damage any components.

I wasn’t able to get the water to dry out just from a vent or blow dryer. But this worked for me: You can warm it with a blow dryer to loosen the glue, then peel the front screen plate up, then do the same (warm and peel) to the digital screen glued to it, just enough to slide in a slip of paper or paper towel to pick up the water itself or spread it thinly so the blow dryer can dry it quickly. Press back together with glue still warm and everything should stick in place.

That way did not work for me. My way is to charge it and it will restart but to me, that is okay. You will still have all your pictures, videos and game progress. But you do need to charge it for 1 and 1/2 days so that it is fully charged and so that it will not just shut down on you.
