I was at Pismo Beach a couple of years ago, checking out the Monarch Butterflies; they supposed actually count them ( 250,000 ); the guide explained how they did it - seemed convoluted, and I lost interest halfway through

These birds were reliable; showed up at the reservoir around 9, re-appeared around 4, just like the internet said

Yes, control it manually with an app such as Camera +.
For concerts, manual control overrides the stupid automatic exposure control (which reads predominantly dark areas and tries to brighten them).
You have to set the exposure manually for performer skin tones. It helps to set the white balance manually, too, so colored lights don't keep shifting the white balance all over. 4800K is about right to start... Many of the LED stage lights are around that white point.

My iPhone 13 Pro Max has various settings that you can change. For example in portrait, you can set the f-Stop. There is an exposure compensation setting and other things that might help. I would suggest you Google your iPhone to see what you have available.
thanks
