Hyperlapse bug?

I've been taking hyperlapse videos with my S21 Ultra. I prop the phone up on a tripod so it's completely still but every video I take seems to track the movement of the clouds and auto-stabilizes. I've tried turning off all the settings that could possibly be causing these, even switching between Ultra wide, normal, and FHD/UHD but to no avail.

Is somebody else experiencing this? I never had such an issue with my Galaxy S9 but with the S21 the final hyperlapse video is never how it's framed during the recording. 😓

After much trial and error, I figured out that the cause of this weird shaking is the Focus Enhancer feature. Turning it off (which is only available in the Photo mode) makes the video recording stable again.

Hopefully Samsung can display all the settings in all the modes where they apply. It doesn't really make sense that the Focus Enhancer can apply if you can't turn it off on Hyperlapse mode 😕

EDIT: Apparently it's a fluke. My Hyperlapse is still buggy no matter what setting I turn off
