One important thing to remember is that you shouldn’t put your device in direct sunlight. So while a windowsill might be a good place to dry your iPhone, you should also consider where the sun is shining into your home. Choose a spot that has some shade. Ideally, you should wait 24-48 hours before trying to turn on your device.
Wait as long as possible without using your iPhone. Do not turn on your iPhone during this time. If you use your device while the components are still wet, you could cause irreparable damage.
Only turn your iPhone back on when you are sure it is dry. This will of course depend on the situation, as dropping your device at the bottom of a lake may take longer to dry than dropping it in the sink.
