Charge HR accidentally went in pool

[OopsPool]

I was planning on taking off my Charge HR when I went in the pool but I forgot to take it off and ended up having it totally sumerged in the water. It will now not turn on and I'm going to try putting it in uncooked rice for 48 hours. Any other suggestions?

That's normally the best thing to do. Make sure you don't try to charge it before it's had every chance to dry out. Good luck!

Did it work when you put it in rice?

Wait Help......I thought the fitbit products were waterproof.  I just bought an Inspire HR. Can it go under water????

The Inspire HR can. See https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1598/?q=Wzterproof&l=en_US&fs=Search&pn=1
