The following is how to take good photos via cellphone:

Sunlight

Even though the sun makes your eyes glare, but sunlight will make your photos better and brighter. Very small image sensor for example, objects like this are in dire need of sunlight, so it would be nice if you take photos outside the sunlit room.

Let the sunshine help your photography. Try the sunshine behind you or on one of your shoulders. Avoid taking photos directly with the direction of the sun, because it will radically make your object become underexpose. If you take a photo indoors, try to open the window so that the sun's light enters the room, and if you try to light up the lights at night enough to illuminate your room.

Compose Photos

To get good photos, not only know the right settings. Try compose a photo, then divide the frame into three parts, imagine a tic-tac-toe board and place your photo object on one of the lines, not in the center of the screen.

Be careful in maintaining the camera level, make sure there are no ruins of a photo like the skewed horizon, and keep an eye on the background so that no strange appearance appears above a photo object.

Fast Camera Access

Some cellphones usually have difficult camera access which eliminates many golden opportunities to get a memory through a photo. If you have a smartphone and possible operating system, move the camera application to a more convenient location.

Make sure you get camera access quickly. On the iPhone, for example, make sure that the camera application is located on the homescreen or put it in an area that can access quickly as if placed at the bottom of the screen.

Hold the cellphone correctly

Hold your cellphone properly and correctly. One of the reasons why your photo results tend to get blurry photos is that you hold your photo incorrectly, like holding it awkwardly and with the other hand. As a result your camera moves when you are taking a photo. Instead, hold your cellphone with both hands.

Optimize settings

If your cellphone camera has white balance control, you will always get the best photo results automatically. But if the color that comes out is not satisfactory, try adjusting the balance to reflect the light around, like neon, during the day or sunset. Also make sure to reset it to automatic mode when you are finished.

Avoid using photo effects

Most cellphones offer relatively few choices to improve the quality of photos. Picture effects like negative sephia and black and white actually enough to help you to take good and charming photos. But remember that when you take photos in sepia mode, for example, then your photo will be colored like that forever cannot return to the actual color.
