## What is Instant HDR?

Instant HDR converts ordinary photos into real HDR JPEGs tuned for Instagram posting.

Most HDR photo apps push a stronger effect before upload. But Instagram applies its own HDR processing, which can visibly alter the image after posting. Instant HDR is built around that behavior.

Instead of chasing an exaggerated pre-upload preview, Instant HDR is tuned to preserve your photo’s intended look after Instagram upload, while still producing a bold HDR effect once the post goes live.

Features:
• One-tap HDR conversion
• Tuned specifically for Instagram posting
• Helps keep your SDR image stable after upload
• Local on-device processing
• Saves the converted HDR JPEG to your photo library
• Optional subscription removes the export watermark

Instant HDR is made for creators who want reliable HDR output — not a preview that falls apart after posting.
