Will a magnet mess up my iPhone 5?

I set my phone on a magnet at work that we use to remove sensors with out noticing. When I took up off after about 10 seconds it was acting a lil wired for a couple seconds but it's been fine ever since this happened a couple months ago and haven't had any problems with my phone since. Please only knolegleble answers only.

While it may have not caused any lingering effects that time, it is NEVER advisable to put a magnet onto an electronic advice. That's essentially like throwing ice cold water on boiling oil, it's only going to cause a great deal of trouble. I would suggest you never do that again if you want your phone to last.
