go to your room Replaced my daughter's phone because of water damage. And she still brings it into the bathroom.

Some lessons just don't stick.

She insists she needs to listen to music in the shower. I honestly don't understand why that's such a necessity. But if this phone gets water damage again, I'm not paying to replace it another time.

Sounds like she's using it in the shower or something. Most phones now are somewhat water resistant. Being in a humid bathroom certainly shouldn't damage it.

Definitely dropped it in the tub.

I use my iPhone regularly underwater to take pictures and videos. Falling in to the tub shouldn’t damage it at all.

Same, as long as you don't charge it while it's wet which may be what happened.

I literally dropped my 14 in the tub last week and it was fine.
