You’re standing in a dimly lit scene, you raise your phone, and… nothing. No Night Mode icon. No long exposure countdown. Just a regular photo that looks far darker than what your eyes can see. If this has ever happened, you’re not imagining things — and your phone isn’t broken. Night Mode is surprisingly picky. […]
