I had the Genius Bar decline a warranty repair because I carried the phone in my front pocket and guys are damp there. Yes, warranty declined because of sweaty balls.

Moisture indicators were triggered, likely because I have it in the bathroom when I shower but that’s what the genius told me when I argues it had never been wet.

Funny how they look for moisture indicators instead of actually checking if there’s been water damage

Steam from being in the bathroom during a shower is quite harmful though, as the warm steam can over time weaken the seals in your phone. The same thing happens if it is submerged in water too much as well. Having your phone in a damp pocket would be no problem though, just as using it in the rain is ok too.
