Turn your back to eclipse.
DO a selfie.
you get videos and don't go blind.

There's some controversy over rob's advice. Some are worried about damage to your phone. Others worry about light reflected off the surface of your phone damaging your eyes.

  • Will looking a solar eclipse on your phone safe? I lost my solar eclipse glasses, so I want to know if it is okay to stare at the eclipse on my iphone, will it damage my eyes?
  • WHY CAN't I TAKE A PICTURE OF THE SOLAR ECLIPSE? So many people have told me that it would break/damage my phone lens if I do. Which makes no sense to me whatsoever because if you were to go out any other day and take a picture of sun, nothing would happen right? So why during the eclipse? I also didn't get any glasses so I don't want risk viewing it but I was thinking to just record it from my phone and look through it. ( I have an iphone 7) and the camera lens seems pretty strong to me but I honestly don't know?
  • Is what we look in the mirror or the camera more how we actually look? Whenever I look in the bathroom mirror, I look good, but whenever I take a picture of myself, my bad skin and oily skin show more and my face shape looks uneven and I look like I have a huge forehead. I just took it with my iPhone with no filter on. Is the camera or the mirror more real?
  • Is there anything giving away free iPhones without doing anything? I was wondering if there was any site that's legit that gives you a free iphone and not the points sites cuz they only give very few points for each offers an I don't want to complete offers cuz they cost money and not those referral or sites that download apps and games or surveys I want something that gives you an iphone by just putting in info
