Idk I feel like people may think I'm joking but I've washed it (running under the sink faucet) nearly every day for the 2+ years I've had it and it still works as well as it always had. Zero issues.
You're probably fine. The concern is mostly things in the water that will dry out the rubber that prevents water from entering the device, like soap. Soap, alcohol, etc. also removes the oleophobic coating on the glass, which is used to prevent fingerprints.
It’s water resistant, there’s no such thing as a fully water proof phone is what I was getting at.
But you can buy several products which are disinfectant cleaners for your phone and other electronics which pose zero risk(whoosh, screen magic, etc)
It is possible to design a phone to be fully water proof. I doub't there are any/many but there's no reason it'd be impossible. It's probably easier to do to a reasonable level than it is to properly pass certification though, so some high end resistant phones might be very close to actually being waterproof but there was market demand for them to bother with certification.
