Methods and apparatuses for drying electronic devices

A method for drying an electronic device comprising:

• providing a portable drying chamber for receiving an electronic device, wherein the portable drying chamber is sealable;
• receiving the electronic device in the portable drying chamber;
• providing a drying apparatus for placing at least partially within the portable drying chamber, wherein the drying apparatus comprises:
• a first aperture,
• a second aperture,
• a moisture-absorbing substance,
• at least one sensor enabled to determine at least one humidity of a first air or a second air, wherein the first air is inside the portable drying chamber and outside the drying apparatus, wherein the second air is inside the drying apparatus,
• at least one controller connected to the at least one sensor, and
• at least one computing device for providing at least one instruction for the at least one controller;
• initiating, at a first time, using the at least one controller, based on a first instruction received from the at least one computing device, a first display operation comprising:
• generating, using the at least one sensor, a first humidity data based on the at least one humidity,
• generating, based on the first humidity data, at least one first input to at least one indication device, and
• initiating display of, based on the at least one first input, at least one first visual indication using the at least one indication device;
• initiating, at a second time after the first time, using the at least one controller, based on a second instruction received from the at least one computing device, a drying operation comprising:
• providing, using the first aperture and the second aperture, a first airflow,
• routing, using the first airflow, a moisture from the electronic device to the first air,
• routing, using the first airflow, via the first aperture, the moisture from the first air to the second air,
• routing, using the first airflow, the moisture from the second air to the moisture-absorbing substance,
• absorbing, using the moisture-absorbing substance, the moisture from the second air, and
• exhausting, via the second aperture, the first airflow to an exterior of the drying apparatus;
• and
• initiating, at a third time after the second time, using the at least one controller, based on the first instruction or a third instruction received from the at least one computing device, a second display operation comprising:
• generating, using the at least one sensor, a second humidity data based on the at least one humidity,
• generating, based on the second humidity data, at least one second input for the at least one indication device, and
• initiating display of, based on the at least one second input, at least one second visual indication using the at least one indication device.
