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.
