SDR Ready: HDR Video Converter

Fix washed-out videos & photos

$6.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Now fixes washed-out HDR photos too, straight from the share sheet. One tap, on-device, no subscription - and it keeps converting when you leave the app. Your iPhone videos look stunning on your phone - and washed-out gray on Windows, Discord, and older TVs. That's because iPhone records HDR video, and most screens and apps outside Apple's world don't understand it. SDR Ready fixes it in one tap. And since 2.0, it fixes washed-out HDR photos too. Pick your videos and photos, see the before/after proof, convert. Converted copies are saved to Photos right next to the originals - originals never touched. WHY SDR READY • One button. No color-science quiz, no seven presets. • Split-screen proof - both sides rendered from your actual clip. • Photos too: washed-out HEICs become JPEGs that open everywhere. • Output sizes that fit Discord and email attachment limits. • Convert straight from the share sheet with the Shortcuts action. • Walk away - batches keep converting in the background. • Batch convert. Queue as many clips as you like. • Works with everything iPhone shoots: Dolby Vision, HLG, HDR10, 4K. • Already-SDR clips are detected and skipped - no pointless conversions. • On iPhone and iPad, with a built-in sample video to try it out. • 100% on-device. No account, no upload, no internet needed. • No subscription. Pay once, keep it forever. WHAT IT DOES, HONESTLY SDR Ready converts HDR video to standard H.264 / Rec.709 using Apple's own video engine - the same tone mapping Photos uses when it shows HDR footage on an SDR screen. Photos are re-encoded as standard JPEGs. Your converted copies look right on Windows, Discord, WhatsApp Web, older TVs, projectors - every screen. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Zero network requests. No analytics, no tracking, no ads, no third-party SDKs. Your videos and photos never leave your phone.
