I dont have a pixel, but if there’s like a “pro” mode in the camera app, you can play around with the shutter speed and expose for longer. After the event the sky looked normal, but I could still get the purple green with my phone camera!
On the Pixel I’d recommend the astrophotography mode which exposes for 4 to 5 minutes, it works very well.
You need to use the night mode in the camera and then put the phone on a tripod or lean it against something so it won’t move, after a few seconds the shutter button will turn into a stars symbol. Then press the shutter button and it will tell you how long you should leave the phone there.

I’ll give that a try tonight, thank you for the tip!
