Dangers of broken back glass iPhone 13? (alien.top)

About 3 months ago I dropped my cell phone and since then it looks like this. I've always used a case so that's still on there. A few days ago I took my case of to see how it looked and I saw that the glass is not only shattered anymore but completely gone in te right bottom corner.

Are there any risks if I keep using it this way? Like is there a big chance that it will damage the inside of the phone?

Just put some clear packing tape over the whole back of the phone neatly and trimmed a bit over the sides, just to hold it together so you don't get shards flaking off everywhere, and leave it in it's case, until you decide to repair or upgrade or whatever.

Not likely to damage the phone further, more injury to yourself and obviously the phone is not water resistant anymore, so keep it dry.

Or if you don’t like the look of the tape you could get a dbrand skin.
