Depends, my phone is IP69K so I washed it with hand soap, warm water and a towel dry lol

Lol don’t depend on it.
I had a Samsung Galaxy S23 that got water damage after I did this at least once everyday for months, not covered by warranty. I did that because I was germophobic af triggered by covid, now i just use those wet wipes to wipe off the germs.

No, don’t use soap! It changes the surface tension of water and can allow to enter your phone when it otherwise wouldn’t be able to.
