My Google pixel 7 got one of them pretty far out from the planey. And that was just on night mode can't wait to try astrophotography mode!

Yes. Good seeing and equipment help. Here’s Jupiter, Io with shadow, and Ganymede, taken via my iPhone (and Questar Seven).

Was that image from a video capture?

Here's a hand-held afocal iPhone shot of the Galilean satellites forming a parallelogram that I took through a friend's 6" Astro-Physics refractor on 9/4/24.

Yes, on my YouTube channel (@ronmay2833) you can view it as a 17 second video. Not sure what happened to the colors, as the video looks fairly black and white, but the still posted above is closer to what I saw in the eyepiece (and I do tinker with internal editing controls to play with what’s been captured).
