I've seen at least two movies which were shot with iPhones
Unsane (2018) by Steven Soderbergh - shot with iPhone 7 Plus
Tangerine (2015) by Sean Baker - shot with iPhone 5S
Both seemed to have used Filmic Pro app.
Honestly, you don't notice much - only the lack of steadicam, if they haven't used such stabilizing systems. And if you know before starting the films, you'll forget throughout the movies.
Steven Soderburgh made two movies entirely on iPhones. The first was with iPhone 8.
"Anybody going to see this movie who has no idea of the backstory to the production will have no idea this was shot on the phone. That’s not part of the conceit... There’s a philosophical obstacle a lot of people have about the size of the capture device. I don’t have that problem. I look at this as potentially one of the most liberating experiences that I’ve ever had as a filmmaker, and that I continue having."

Highly recommended movie watch:
Unsane.
Never say never. Steven Soderbergh shot Unsane with phones and I wouldn't be surprised if other commercial movies have been shot on phones.
Steven Soderbergh an awful lot on an iPhone. He's made at least two movies with them. I'd argue that he is a 'pro'.
