And how does iPhone do zooming in on a subject and holding focus?

iphones have great autofocus actually.  PDAF for many years now.

Zooming in on a subject while recording makes for horrible video, don't do that.  iPhone can do it, but you get digital zoom with lots of artifacts.

Zooming before recording works but stick with the 3 native focal lengths for good results.

Or tracking focus of moving objects?

again, very well

Or controlling the exposure or focus points?

both are available with a tap

Or choosing between deep and shallow depth of field?

Cinematic mode with fake blur is pretty decent if you background isn't too complex.

But lets be honest, APS-C with a wide angle lens isn't going to have shallow DOF either.  iPhone 13 pro lens is equivalent to f3.75 lens on 1.6x crop for DOF equivalence.
