The iPhone 8 is not waterproof, it is water resistant.

Splash, Water, and Dust Resistant3

Rated IP67 under IEC standard 60529

If the back is cracked, I would consider the water resistance to be even less effective so you should be extra careful around water.

On my iPhone XS, I cracked the front screen and when I went to apple they said not to take it into the water unless it was fixed. I decided to replace the front glass with apple and now it is water resistant again. :)
