Slept with my Iphone 14 pro max under my pillow

Actually, there is. If the phone was plugged in, it could overheat. From the article Katana-San linked to above:

Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device, its power adapter, or a wireless charger when it’s operating or connected to a power source for long periods of time. For example, don’t sleep on a device, power adapter, or wireless charger, or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your body, when it’s connected to a power source. Keep your iPhone, the power adapter, and any wireless charger in a well-ventilated area when in use or charging. 

Doing so once probably won't hurt anything but one should not make a habit of it.

Sleeping with your iPhone under your pillow shouldn't cause any damage to the screen, or its touch/pressure sensitivity. Your phone should be working completely normally.

I also sleep with my phone under my pillow and I haven't experienced any issues in doing that.

Hello ~ OCD understood but are you having any issues that would indicate a problem? If not you should be fine and if so what issues? I would not make this a habit however. Post back if needed. Take care. Also read through this for more safety information…

It probably did no harm as long as the screen wasn’t cracked; a pillow provides a lot of padding and protection.

Hello~ Not entirely true as you could actually break the screen and injure yourself. You should not make a habit of sleeping on or with your iPhone…period. You could hit the screen multiple times and lock yourself out which is disastrous for those that don’t backup their devices. We can’t make sweeping statements here. Weird things happen. You should have your iPhone charging overnight and in a safe way.

I can’t confirm without actually handling your phone, but you should notice any problems immediately.
