Start taking your photos with ur back camera and from an arms distance

It's the infamous 'lens distortion'!

The mirror really is the best way to see what u look like, people say the inverted thingy with the mirror makes people look different, but it's just because u are not used to your inverted reflection. If you pay attention when ex. a friend is looking into a mirror, they look exactly like they do in real life.

Yeah kinda, although if you look horrible in candid photos of yourself ect (like I do) then you probably look bad irl. The phone shouldn't make or break how u look but a small difference is to be expected ofc
