I recently got my first smart phone -it's an iPhone 7 (yes, I was a flip phone type of guy for many years). One of the features I like most about it is the panorama photo mode, which hasn't been present on any DSLR I've ever had. But about half of the photos I shoot with it have a noticeable vertical line about 20% of the way from the left to the right. This is especially noticeable if the background is a plain blue sky. Some have this same type of vertical line scattered across the entire photo. It took me a while to figure out what was causing this. The pressing of the touch screen jerks the phone enough such that it moves in a manner that is not accounted for in the processor of the smartphone. And if it is windy, it is almost impossible to move the phone across to take a panorama such that the vertical lines don't become present.
Might there be a firmware update which fixes this? Other than developing some kind of remote tripod (which rotates without one putting their hand on the camera) or perhaps a firmware update which compensates for this in the processor, I can't think of anything.
