Hi, I have recently noticed that coloured lines are appearing on many of my photos I take. Most of the time it’s at low(ish) light however i can take other photos at low light and it’s fine. Would there be a setting I need to change for this to stop happening? Thanks

Worth cleaning the lens? low light/high contrast from a point source of light might cause some diffraction effect if there's dirt/oil/smears on the lens?

I've just had a quick Google and it seems a widely reported issue. The suggestion seems to be to turn off Smart HDR.

I think this is a product of the tiny sensor and the heavy processing required to give the resultant sharp, bright images, both of which greatly magnify any aberrations. The Leeds shot seems obviously and unsurprisingly to be lens flare from the bright light.

The pics look pretty good to me, but it's a phone camera at the end of the day - a top end one, but still a phone.

Also from a quick google - you have to switch off HDR as well as Smart HDR.
But there are reports this has been fixed with the latest update. 13.3.1.
