iPhones are actually able to detect this and will give a pop-up saying moisture has been detected in the charging port and charging has been disabled out of safety concerns. It even shows you a bypass button for emergencies!

I get a similar notification when I take Apple Watch surfing. Also took an iPhone 11 in a waterproof bag around my neck for pics, but it was a hassle to zip up the wetsuit, and the bag fogged up.
A warning for what? Apple Watch doesn’t have a charging port
Apple watch gives a moisture warning if the speaker port has water inside. Happens often after swimming or running in rain.
Android also does this
