Water Eject Shortcut for iPhone
The Apple Watch has a built-in Water Lock button. Your iPhone doesn't — but you can use our free browser-based water ejector to achieve the exact same result in seconds. No download, no Siri Shortcut file needed.
What Is the iPhone Water Eject Shortcut?
The "Water Eject" Siri Shortcut is a popular community-created iOS shortcut that plays a specific low-frequency tone (typically 165Hz) through your iPhone speaker to help push trapped water out. It was originally created as a workaround since iPhone has no native Water Lock feature like Apple Watch.
However, third-party Siri Shortcuts carry risks — they require you to allow untrusted shortcuts in iOS Settings, and many circulating shortcut links are broken or outdated. Our browser-based tool does the exact same thing with zero installation required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Water Eject Siri Shortcut safe for iPhone? +
Community-created Siri Shortcuts require enabling 'Allow Untrusted Shortcuts' in iOS Settings, which opens your device to potential security risks. Our browser-based tool requires no installation and no permissions — it's the safest option.
Does the 165Hz tone actually work? +
Yes. 165Hz is the same frequency range used by Apple Watch's built-in Water Lock feature. The low-frequency tone creates acoustic pressure that physically vibrates water droplets out of the speaker membrane opening.
How long should I run the water eject tone? +
Run 2–3 cycles of 3–5 minutes each. For heavy submersion (toilet, pool), allow 15–20 minutes total across multiple sessions with short breaks between cycles.
Will this work if my iPhone got wet after falling in a pool? +
This tool is most effective for light to moderate water exposure. For pool submersion, rinse with fresh water first (to remove chlorine), then run the ejector. Saltwater submersion requires rinsing with fresh water before using the acoustic tool.
