If the Sun is not visible, camera width can be adjusted manually, but there is no reliable visual reference. The last calibrated camera width is remembered; compass correction is not reused because it changes with the magnetic environment.
Securely cover the phone’s active camera lenses with a suitable solar filter. Never look directly at the Sun without certified solar viewing protection. Doing this without a filter may permanently damage your phone and/or eyes. The phone screen does not protect your eyes.
