App Profile: HDR Easy

HDR Easy

Transform SDR photos and videos into HDR10 for modern HDR‑capable displays on recent iPhones, iPads, and Apple Silicon Macs. 
Not to be confused with legacy “HDR” exposure‑blending filters - this is standards‑based HDR10 for brighter highlights on supported screens.

Note: HDR content will not display when your iPhone is in Low Power Mode, as HDR is disabled.

Key Benefits
• Works well with SDR AI images, DSLR photos, and film scans - especially high‑contrast scenes.
• Simple workflow: pick media (or drag & drop on iPad/Mac) and convert.
• One‑tap HDR10 for photos and videos; optional contrast/saturation tuning (video; photo experimental).
• Batch processing available in Pro.

Device Requirements
• HDR‑capable display (e.g., iPhone 11 Pro or later; iPad Pro with XDR; Apple Silicon Mac with XDR).
• iOS 18.1 or later.

How It Works

• Input: JPEG, PNG, HEIC, TIFF, PSD, RAW, MP4/MOV/M4V (H.264/HEVC)
• Output: 10‑bit HEIC with HDR metadata or JPEG UltraHDR (photos), HDR10 video (HEVC/H.265) ~80 Mbps
• Standards: BT.2100 PQ and BT.2020 color

Important
• HDR appearance varies by device, display, OS, and viewing app; specific results aren’t guaranteed.
• Some apps show HDR thumbnails over‑bright; non‑HDR devices may display HDR video too bright.

Feature Highlights by Version
• Free Trial: Watermark; convert one photo or video at a time (test HDR10 on your setup).
• Starter: No watermark; unlimited single‑file conversions; video tuning; paste from clipboard.
• Pro: Everything in Starter, plus batch processing; drag & drop on macOS (designed for iPad); mix photos and videos.
