I accidentally dropped my Pixel 6 into a mop bucket filled with water. I removed the case and dried it off, then let it sit for a few hours. When I turned it on, it was still acting strangely, even making calls to random people on its own. The screen looks fine with no cracks, but the phone is around 2-4 years old. I'm worried since I can't afford a new phone right now, and I need it for work. What steps should I take to try to save my phone?

First off, you should definitely test it out. Sometimes, phones can handle a bit of water, especially if they're somewhat durable. Just be careful with it for now and see if it settles down after being powered on for a while. If it's still glitching, there might be more going on.
Make sure there’s a screen protector on it; that can help prevent further damage. If it's still acting weird, consider putting it in a bag of rice or alongside silica gel packets to draw out moisture. Just keep an eye on it for the next few days.
