Clear water. Test your speaker. Verify the result. Crisp uses targeted sound frequencies to help eject trapped water and dislodge dust from iPhone and iPad speakers. Then it listens with the microphone to compare real Before/After dB measurementsβ€”so you can check the result instead of guessing. NO ADS. NO ACCOUNTS. 100% OFFLINE. Is my data private? Everything runs on your device. Nothing leaves your iPhone or iPad. No accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. How do I get started? 1. Place your device face down on a soft surface 2. Set volume to maximum 3. Tap Start Eject and wait 3 minutes What can I do with it? - Eject trapped water using a 165Hz tone, or switch to Dust mode to shake out lint and debris - Choose Normal, Turbo, or Deep intensity for a faster or more thorough clean - Find your phone's exact speaker resonance point with Resonance Finder for a stronger clean - Compare a real Before/After dB reading, not just a guess, to confirm the cycle worked - Generate any tone from 20Hz to 22kHz β€” up to 30kHz in Ultrasonic mode β€” with sine, square, triangle, or sawtooth waveforms - Test speaker frequency response with bass (80Hz), mid (1kHz), and treble (8kHz) presets - Run stereo balance (left/right) tests on stereo-capable devices - Check your microphone for blockages with a one-tap diagnostic - Measure ambient sound level with the built-in dB meter - Sweep frequencies automatically to dislodge stubborn dust particles - Take a structured hearing test across the audible range and save your audiogram - Save your favorite frequencies for one-tap recall - Set a cleaning reminder and track your streak over the past 7 days - Ask Siri to eject water, hands-free - 100% no ads, ever β€” most speaker-cleaning apps are free with ads until you subscribe; Crisp never shows one What devices does it work on? iPhone or iPad running iOS 17 or later. The same audio principles work on any built-in speaker. Why use Crisp? Speaker grilles trap moisture from sweat, rain, pool splashes, and humidity. Dust and pocket lint accumulate over time. Crisp uses sound vibration β€” the same technique built into Apple Watch β€” to physically dislodge particles without opening your device or using cleaning tools that can damage internal components. Does it really work? Sound vibration ejection is a well-documented technique. Results depend on how much water is trapped and how recently. For best results, run the cycle within an hour of water exposure, repeat 2 to 3 times, and keep the device face down throughout. How much does it cost? Download free. Optional Crisp Pro plans and any eligible introductory offer are shown in the app using your local App Store price. You can manage or cancel subscriptions anytime in Settings.

About

Water Eject

Features
Read full description

When an iPhone speaker sounds muffled after a splash, Water Eject provides a focused acoustic routine and clear care guidance. Quick Clean is free and unlimited. Controlled low-frequency sweeps play through the built-in iPhone speaker while you keep the speaker side facing down. QUICK CLEAN β€” FREE AND UNLIMITED Quick Clean runs a 30-second bidirectional sweep from 150 to 210 Hz with smooth ramps and an app-defined amplitude limit. Cleaning requires the built-in iPhone speaker route. If headphones, AirPods, Bluetooth audio, or a wired output is active, the routine stops and explains how to switch output safely. ENHANCED CLEAN β€” LIFETIME ACCESS Enhanced Clean is a 52-second four-stage routine with 120 to 240 Hz sweeps and pulsed frequency holds. It is 73% longer than Quick Clean and uses twice the sweep range. These are transparent routine differences, not a performance guarantee or repair claim. One lifetime purchase unlocks every diagnostic tool. There is no subscription. GUIDED BEFORE & AFTER COMPARISON Run a repeatable three-band probe before and after a routine. Water Eject reports relative low, mid, and high frequency change as Stronger, Similar, Lower, or Inconclusive. It never labels a speaker wet, dry, repaired, or damaged. Unreliable comparisons are rejected when conditions change. Microphone access is optional and requested only when you explicitly begin Guided Compare or Mic Check. Audio samples are processed temporarily on your device and are not saved. Raw buffers stay in memory only. If microphone access is unavailable, you can still record a manual Better, Same, or Worse result. Cleaning itself does not need microphone permission. SOUND TOOLS Explore a bounded low-frequency lab, speaker channel checks, and bass, mid, and treble test tones. Use left and right checks with connected headphones or AirPods, or make an optional voice microphone recording for playback. AirPods and other headphones are used only for diagnostic listening; water-ejection routines are never played to them. Speaker playback cannot clean a microphone. LOCAL HISTORY Keep a private on-device record of routine, duration, derived comparison summary, and your result rating. Raw microphone audio is never saved. Clear history inside the app with an explicit confirmation. SAFE CARE GUIDE Follow practical preparation and drying steps based on conservative device-care guidance: remove cases that trap moisture, disconnect cables, place the speaker side down, and allow airflow. Learn why you should avoid heat, compressed air, rice, and objects inserted into openings. The guide also explains liquid-alert precautions and when persistent distortion, charging trouble, heat, or other symptoms deserve professional service. IMPORTANT LIMITS Acoustic pulses may help move light moisture near an exposed speaker mesh, but results vary. Water Eject does not add liquid protection, repair liquid damage, remove packed debris, or affect microphone mesh through speaker playback. Allow drying time and seek qualified service when symptoms persist. DESIGNED FOR CONTROL AND PRIVACY Playback stops on route changes, interruptions, calls, and backgrounding. Water Eject works without an account and does not upload microphone recordings. Choose your in-app language at any time, including right-to-left languages. Unlock lifetime access once to add Enhanced Clean, Guided Compare, manual frequency tools, speaker and headphone checks, microphone playback check, and local history. Quick Clean and the complete care guide remain available without payment. PURCHASE AND PRIVACY: - Lifetime access is available as a one-time non-consumable purchase. There is no subscription. - Payment will be charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. - Restore Purchases can restore lifetime access when you use the same Apple ID.

Verdict

The call

Crisp and Water Eject are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters β€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them β€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
