Help! Spilled coffee on iphone 13 mini (alien.top)

I spilled vanilla latte all over my desk and cleaned it up - but my dumb ass didn't even NOTICE that my phone was there until minutes later. It got drenched in coffee. I wiped it with a towel soaked with water, but responded to a text before fully powering it off.

It's been off for the last few hours. I just now read that coffee is corrosive. What will happen to the pictures? Photos are really important to me, and I will die without them.

Is there anything I could do?

Newer iPhones are water resistant and rated to survive spills like that (but no deep-sea diving experiences). Honestly, your phone is probably fine.

You need to make regular iTunes or iCloud backups of your phone if your pictures are that important.
