All Macro photography requires extra light, it's not just anything to do specific to cell phones. That's why there are so many flash rigs designed for this.

Also, the iPhone 13 camera has ridiculously fast lenses[0]:

  Pro 12MP camera system: Telephoto, Wide, and Ultra Wide cameras

  Telephoto: ƒ/2.8 aperture

  Wide: ƒ/1.5 aperture

  Ultra Wide: ƒ/1.8 aperture and 120° field of view

If you search for lenses for "real" cameras with those apertures and focal lengths, you'll find 4 digit price tags for each one.

Sounds like you need some more research into macrophotography
