You get the idea! You look so much better in the second photo.
One of the biggest problems when shooting with a camera phone is that its tiny little diododes on its sensor cannot handle being flooded with light. You will get much better results with it if you do not shoot towards a light source. In the case of your second, wide angle distortion photo, you had a good idea but your phone’s sensor cannot handle the light from the window. Next time, try turning around 180 degrees and see if you can use the window light as front light not back light.
