Anything similar to help with video recording (especially in low light)?

Nothing will help your phone receive more light.

The 3 ways you can do this on a normal camera is a flash or video light which you'd be able to do with a phone. The other 2 options are swapping out hardware (full frame or a lens with a wider aperture), but not possible on a phone.

What phone do you have? If it's an older model, I highly suggest upgrading. Got myself Samsung s9+ and it is amazing in low light over LG G4 that I previously had, can't even compare photo quality between those 2!
No lens will help with low light ,but you can try a separate LED light/off camera light.

These type of lenses are really awesome for someone who wants to tinker with photography. I have tons of cameras and lenses but sometimes I just carry these types of lenses and my phone and walk around for opportunity. The macro lenses are the most fun, fisheye is okay.

The wideangle doesn't do much for me. For instance if I want to take a big group photo it's better to walk farther away then use the wide angle which will distort the edges. But sometimes you might be indoor and can't walk back in which case wide angle will be better then fisheye. But if it's static subject I would just do a panorama with no lens added.

I have used the aukey ones and also $2-$3 ones from eBay. I would suggest everyone avoid the aukey one. Their fisheye lense is straight junk. There will be no part of the picture that will be focused. I tried on multiple phones. The macro is fine, no better then the eBay ones. The aukey is made of more premium plastic and metal compared to eBay. But aukey fails at its basic purpose.

I have tons of aukey chargers and cables and I love them but this product is not worth it even if free. You'll keep wondering if you are doing something wrong.

Edit: my review is based on my time with two separate copies of 180° Fisheye Lens + 110° Wide Angle + 10x Macro Mini Clip. I have not tried the second package posted by OP.

Couple years ago I ordered a handful of $2-$3 ones from eBay and gave them as gifts. People loved it. Great stocking stuffers.

Great. Thanks. You just saved me some money. I'll pass on this.

I have a $800 fisheye lens for a dslr that I own and quality is not good compared to other wide angle lenses I own. That lens is fun to play and for certain shots but not for something I need quality pics.
You can't expect great quality from a $10 accessory! Use it for fun, use the wide angle and macro. See some images other buyers posted to see what you can expect.

No one is expecting the same image as a $800 lens. But the $2 eBay one is better then the $10 Aukey. That is the reason to pass on Aukey.

I think you misunderstood my point. The $800 fish eye lens I have is actually a crappy lens compared to another lens that I have which I bought for $200.
