Edit
To provide some context given the messages below. I was a professional photographer, and understand that getting a good photo is a skill. Exposure time, timing, location, and many other factors come into play when capturing a great image.
Seeing the aurora was a fantastic experience. The purpose of this post is to help reduce FOMO of those who could not see it. Many people who don't know these things will imagine dancing lights in the sky of brilliance, and will be saddened by what they missed. While they did miss something, it's important for them to know exactly what they missed.
Edit2 I should also note this is why I enjoy when photographers post gear, conditions, and settings alongside results. It tells viewers what was real.
Does it have a pro/raw mode?
Yes. But I don't really know how to make the most of it or how to lean.
Also I'm not sure I could use it in a timely manner.
I would recommend a short primer on exposure and aperture on YouTube. Once you grasp those, the rest is pretty easy to understand. The key is timely manner, thats why photographers set up in advance, and practice.
The timely manner thing is the biggest one for me. The use case for phone cameras has always been a camera always on you, ready to go in an instant, to take those cool moment photos. If I'm going to use proper photography techniques, it's not with a phone camera.
