You could probably shoot in apple raw with the built in app and then find a free Lightroom preset (I think Lightroom mobile can have custom presets uploaded to it) and get better results.
Lightroom mobile also actually might require a subscription to edit raw files however (then again it can do a lot more for the price). It also has a free version and you might have good results shooting in a high quality .heif
But I hate subscription apps. And the rest of the UI seems quite clumsy.
