Vivid - Double your brightness 4+

I love this app and happily spent the money to use the 1000 nit brightness. There is one, very tiny problem though: when Vivid is enabled, there is a single dead pixel in the bottom left corner of my M2 Pro Macbook Pro. It's not too distracting but it's enough to make me only want to enable Vivid when I am outdoors rather than just always have it enabled.

This app deserves more praise. Make sure you have supported hardware before purchasing. I get a substantial brightness boost on my 16'' MBP M1Max. It's essential if I wanted to use my MBP outdoors in the sunlight and it great to just have a beautiful bright view while indoors. This truly unlocked the display hardware capabilities of this machine and I love it. It's HDR, but for the Finder and all the other productivity and creative apps one might use. HDR is no longer reserved for just the video content babrely anyone consumes yet, it's everywhere on the Mac when using Vivid. The difference is obvious. There's only one quirk in my experience (still 5 stars, though) and that's that I have to manually disable/enable when changing display resolutions or plugging in external display. Not a deal breaker though..easy enough to do from the installed contextual menu in Finder menu bar.

I had a minor issue with the App so I contacted customer support and heard back very quickly. Very responsive to customer questions. Great team at Vivid. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. This is a great app if you like to use your laptop outdoors...remarkable screen brightening.
