Taking pictures at night can be tricky. We highly suggest you find a light source in front of your subject first before switching on your camera. Try to avoid strong lighting directly behind your subject. If your phone has night mode, be sure to keep the subject and the phone still for 3 seconds (typically) upon clicking the shutter button- this will produce a clearer photo.
