A wide-angle lens refers to a lens whose focal length is substantially smaller than the normal lens for a given film plane. This type of lens allows more of the scene to be included in the photo(as shown in the graph below), which is useful in architectural photography where the photographer may not be able to move farther from the scene to photograph it.
The reason behind the wide-angle trick is simple, its spherical surface ensures an angle of coverage of 110 degrees or more. By contrast, iPhone or normal lens has an angle of coverage of only 40°-60°.
I believe now you understand why the pictures taken inside your room with smartphone are much narrower than you think, to shoot the full picture you might try to cram yourself back against the wall but it doesn’t help much because the coverage angle of your smartphone or camera is limited. In this case our photographers can definitely help you out 🙂
