Algorithms are designed to eject water by maximizing speaker pressure.
Free water eject tool for Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, OnePlus and all Android phones. Uses sound frequencies to push water out of your speaker.
Every Android brand handles water exposure a bit differently. Here is what the major manufacturers officially suggest:
Samsung
Gently shake the phone to remove excess water. Use a fan or natural airflow across the speaker and ports. Samsung phones have built-in moisture detection that warns you before charging while wet.
Samsung Support →
Google Pixel
Power off your Pixel if it was exposed to water. Dry the exterior gently with a lint-free cloth. Do not try to charge until the phone and port are fully dry.
Google Pixel Help →
Xiaomi / Redmi / POCO
Place the phone in a well-ventilated area. Avoid shaking the device forcefully. Some MIUI/HyperOS devices have a built-in "Clear Speaker" tool in Settings that plays a short tone to push water out.
Xiaomi Support →
OnePlus
Wipe the phone dry and let it air out. OnePlus notes that water damage from accidental exposure is typically not covered under standard warranty, even on IP-rated models.
OnePlus Support →Most manufacturer advice focuses on drying the phone and protecting the charging port. For muffled speaker audio specifically, sound frequency vibration gives you a way to actively push water out of the grille instead of just waiting.
Water Eject plays low-frequency tones through your Android phone speaker. These tones make the speaker diaphragm vibrate rapidly, creating pressure waves that break the surface tension holding water droplets on the speaker mesh. The water gets pushed out through the grille openings.
This is the same principle behind the Apple Watch Water Lock feature, adapted for any device with a browser. The tool runs entirely in Chrome, Samsung Internet, Firefox, or any modern Android browser using the Web Audio API. No app download and no special permissions needed.
Xiaomi has this built in. Some Xiaomi phones running MIUI or HyperOS include a "Clear Speaker" feature under Settings > Additional Settings. It plays a short tone to push debris and water out. Water Eject offers more programs and longer cycles for stubborn moisture on any Android phone.
Follow these steps to get the best results on your Android phone:
Remove your case
Cases trap moisture around speaker openings and USB-C ports. Take it off first.
Disconnect Bluetooth devices
Make sure audio plays through the phone speaker, not connected earbuds or a Bluetooth speaker.
Turn volume to maximum
Max volume gives you the strongest speaker vibration and pushes out the most water.
Hold speaker facing down
Point the speaker toward the ground so gravity helps water exit. On most Android phones, the main speaker is on the bottom edge.
Tap Start Water Eject
Let the full cycle finish. Each program covers the frequency range that works best for clearing water from speaker grilles.
Wipe and repeat
Wipe expelled moisture from the speaker area and USB-C port. Run 2-3 more cycles if the speaker still sounds muffled. Switch to Frequency Burst for persistent water.
There are a few common ways to deal with water in your Android speaker. Here is how they stack up:
| Method | Time | Works? | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sound frequency | 30 sec | High | None |
| Air drying | 4-24 hrs | Medium | None |
| Silica gel | 12-24 hrs | Medium | Low |
| Rice | 24-48 hrs | Low | Medium |
| Compressed air | Instant | Medium | High |
| Hair dryer | 5-10 min | Low | High |
| Pro repair | 1-3 days | High | None |
Sound frequency clearing is the fastest safe option for speaker moisture. Compressed air can actually push water deeper into the phone. Hair dryers risk heat damage to adhesives and seals. Rice is a persistent myth that does not work well and can leave starch particles in your ports.
Avoid compressed air. Canned air can push water past the speaker mesh and into internal components. Samsung and Google both recommend gentle drying methods rather than pressurized air.
Water resistance varies a lot across Android phones. Flagship models usually have IP68, but mid-range and budget phones often have lower ratings or none at all:
| Phone | Rating | Depth |
|---|---|---|
| Galaxy S24/S25 | IP68 | 1.5 m |
| Pixel 8/9 | IP68 | 1.5 m |
| OnePlus 12/13 | IP65 | Water jets |
| Xiaomi 14/15 | IP68 | 1.5 m |
| Galaxy A55 | IP67 | 1 m |
| Pixel 8a/9a | IP67 | 1 m |
| Budget phones | None | N/A |
Keep in mind that water resistance degrades over time. Drops, temperature changes, and normal wear all weaken the seals. A two-year-old IP68 phone is not as water resistant as it was on day one.
Budget Android phones often have no IP rating at all, which makes them much more vulnerable to water damage. For these devices, quick action with Water Eject is especially important to get moisture out of the speaker before it causes problems.
Water Eject works on any Android phone that has a browser and a speaker. The Web Audio API is supported by Chrome, Samsung Internet, Firefox, and every other modern Android browser.
Here are some of the most popular compatible devices:
If your phone can open a webpage, it can run Water Eject. Brand and model do not matter.
Compatible with all Android brands
Water Eject works well for surface moisture trapped in the speaker grille. But some problems go beyond what sound vibration can fix:

Google Repair Portal →Take your case off, turn the volume all the way up, and hold the phone with the speaker facing down. Tap Start Water Eject and let it run. Wipe away any water that comes out and repeat 2 to 3 times if the speaker is still muffled.
Most Android phones do not. Xiaomi phones running MIUI or HyperOS have a Clear Speaker tool in Settings that plays a short tone. Samsung, Google, and OnePlus don't have anything similar built in. Water Eject works on all Android phones through the browser, no install required.
Most flagships do. Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 5 and newer, and Xiaomi 13 and newer all have IP67 or IP68 ratings. Budget and mid-range phones often have lower ratings or none at all. Keep in mind that water resistance wears down over time from drops, heat, and general use.
Yes. Max volume gives you the strongest speaker vibration for pushing water out. Modern Android phones have smart amplifier chips that protect the speaker from damage even at full volume. Don't hold the phone near your ear during playback, and pause if the phone feels warm.
Samsung says to gently shake the phone 5 to 10 times with the port facing down, then place it in a well-ventilated area or dry it with a fan. Google says to power off immediately, wipe with a soft cloth, and air dry at room temperature. Both warn against heat and compressed air. Neither recommends rice.
That's a safety feature, not a defect. Samsung, Google, and other water-resistant Android phones have moisture sensors in the USB-C port that block charging to prevent short circuits. Dry the port area, wait 30 minutes to an hour, and the alert should go away. Don't try to force charge by overriding it.
Yes. Works on all Samsung Galaxy phones through Chrome or Samsung Internet. Galaxy S20 and newer have IP68 water resistance with sealed speaker grilles where water commonly gets trapped. Samsung also notes that making a phone call after drying can help, since the speaker vibration during calls clears residual moisture.
It helps, but it's limited. Xiaomi's Clear Speaker (in Settings > Additional Settings) plays one 30-second tone at a fixed frequency. Water Eject offers multiple programs that cover a wider frequency range, which works better for stubborn water. If you have a Xiaomi phone, try Clear Speaker first, then use Water Eject if the speaker is still muffled.
Yes. Works on all Pixel phones through Chrome. Pixel 5 and newer have IP67 or IP68 ratings. Pixel phones have slightly smaller speaker cavities than some other brands, which means water tends to clear a bit faster but can also sound more noticeable when it's trapped.
Don't. If there's any moisture in the USB-C port, charging can cause a short circuit or corrosion on the connectors. Let the port dry completely first. Most water-resistant Android phones will block wired charging automatically if moisture is detected. Wireless charging is safer in the meantime, but make sure the back of the phone is dry too.
