Speaker sounds muffled after the beach, the shower, or the rain? DryTone plays tuned low-frequency tones through your phone's speaker. The vibration helps push water droplets out of the speaker grille — no tools, no rice, no disassembly. WATER EJECT — 8 TONE MODES • Basic Drain Tone (165 Hz), Quick Drain Tone, Low Frequency, Rain Contact, Humid Weather and Daily Sound Check • Earpiece Test plays through the top earpiece speaker • Dust Clean sweeps the tone between 100 and 400 Hz to help shake loose light dust from the speaker grille • Point the speaker down, raise the media volume and repeat 2–3 sessions for best results • A reminder appears if the media volume is too low MANUAL FREQUENCY • Pick any tone from 80 to 1000 Hz • Sine, square, triangle and sawtooth waveforms • Sessions from 10 to 60 seconds STEREO TEST • Plays the left and right channels one at a time, plus low and high frequency sweeps • Listen for a muffled or crackling side DB METER • Live sound level from your microphone • Current, minimum, average and peak dB • A quick reference for how loud your surroundings are SOUNDS • 8 looping ambience tracks: rain, forest, ocean, city, focus study, deep sleep, calm meditation and fireplace HUMIDITY HINT • Shows local humidity from weather data and suggests the Humid Weather mode on humid days PRIVACY The microphone is only used for the live dB reading; audio is never kept or uploaded. Your approximate location is used once to look up local humidity. No account needed. Note: DryTone is a maintenance aid, not a repair service. If your device was submerged, power it off and contact professional service. The dB meter is not a certified measuring instrument; readings are for reference only. ——— SUBSCRIPTION DryTone Pro unlocks full sessions for every mode and all tools. • 6 Months — US$29.99 every 6 months; eligible new subscribers start with a 3-day free trial • Weekly — US$9.99/week; eligible new subscribers start with a 3-day free trial • Lifetime — US$79.99 one-time purchase, not a subscription Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, or when the free trial ends.

Liquid Wave brings together guided speaker-cleaning tones, tone generation, stereo testing and a relative sound meter. QUICK CLEAN — FREE Use Quick Clean for a guided tone pattern intended to help loosen water trapped in your speaker. Follow the session timer and audio-route information, with Pause and Stop controls. The free mode includes advertising. LIQUID WAVE PREMIUM A weekly or yearly subscription unlocks Smart Sweep, Deep Sweep, the Tone Generator, Relative Sound Meter and Stereo Test. Premium also removes advertising throughout the app while your subscription is active. SMART SWEEP AND DEEP SWEEP Choose additional guided cleaning-tone patterns. Results vary by device and circumstances; no mode guarantees water removal or repairs damage. TONE GENERATOR Choose a frequency from 20 Hz to 20 kHz using the slider or numeric keypad. Select sine, square or triangle waveforms, set a duration or play continuously, and watch the waveform display. STEREO TEST Check left and right channels independently, in sequence or alternately, with on-screen labels and confirmation. RELATIVE SOUND METER View minimum, average and maximum relative sound levels using your microphone. This is not a calibrated decibel meter. Microphone audio is processed on your device and is not recorded, saved or uploaded. SUBSCRIPTIONS U.S. pricing: USD 3.99 per week or USD 19.99 per year. Prices in other regions may differ. Both plans provide the same Premium features. The weekly plan offers a 3-day free trial for eligible users, then automatically renews at the weekly price shown before purchase.

SAFETY AND PRIVACY Liquid Wave cannot repair physical or water damage or waterproof your device. It does not automatically raise system volume or play hidden background tones. Keep volume comfortable and stop if sound causes discomfort. If sound quality does not improve, allow the device to dry naturally and consult a repair professional. No app account or sign-in is required. Settings and cleaning-session history stay on your device. Google AdMob supplies ads in the free mode, AppsFlyer measures installs and launches, and Apphud manages purchase status and restoration. These services process device and usage information as described in the Privacy Policy. Premium removes ads; it does not disable all purchase-status and installation-measurement processing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Liquid Wave at none against Water Eject Cleaner's 3. Liquid Wave also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 days). Water Eject Cleaner's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
