  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.

  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.
