To take photos of the Moon on an iPhone 16, follow these steps:
Select a time and location. Ideally, choose a night with clear skies and a high moon phase. If possible, avoid light from city lights.
Set up your camera. Open the "Camera" app and select "Photo." Ensure that flash is off and HDR is enabled or set to auto. If your iPhone 16 has an optical zoom, use the telephoto lens (2x or 2.5x depending on the model) for a closer view of the moon.
Focus and exposure settings. Tap and hold on the moon on the screen to lock focus. Then drag the screen down or up to adjust exposure.
Stabilize your iPhone 16. To avoid blurriness, place your iPhone 16 on a stable surface or use a tripod.
Take the photo. Press the shutter button. For best results, take multiple shots.
For editing photos, use built-in "Photos" tools or external apps, such as PicWish.
