HDR Easy vs 360 Image

NEW HDR Easy V3! Turn SDR photos and videos into HDR for HDR-capable displays on recent iPhones, iPads, and Apple Silicon Macs. This is not a legacy HDR exposure-blending filter. Files use current HDR formats so highlights can go brighter 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 and drop on iPad/Mac) and convert. • Share a photo or video from the Photos app to open it in HDR Easy. • A preview lets you adjust the look before you save. • Tune Peak Brightness, Saturation, and Contrast on photos and videos. • Videos include highlight masking, with HDR Range and Softness, so HDR can stay in the bright parts. • Full and Highlights looks for video. Trial can switch them. • Batch processing and a bitrate slider are available in Pro. • Includes a new pink color preset for the app. Device Requirements • HDR-capable display (for example 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) • Photos: 10-bit HEIC with HDR metadata, or JPEG Ultra HDR • Video: 10-bit HEVC, HLG HDR (BT.2020). Default target 100 Mbps. Pro can set 10 to 200 Mbps. • Standards: BT.2020 color, HLG for video Important • HDR appearance varies by device, display, OS, and viewing app. Specific results are not guaranteed. • Some apps show HDR thumbnails over-bright. On non-HDR screens the viewing app tone-maps the video, so it can look different from the source. • Video Peak Brightness above 2.00 can flatten or darken the picture on some screens and on Instagram. Feature Highlights by Version • Free Trial: Watermark. Convert one photo or video at a time. Switch Full and Highlights video looks. • Starter: No watermark. Unlimited single-file conversions. Highlight masking, Peak, Range, Softness, contrast, and saturation. Paste from clipboard. • Pro: Everything in Starter, plus bitrate control (10-200 Mbps), batch processing, drag and drop on macOS (designed for iPad), and mixed photos and videos.

Capture everything around you in one photo. Stand in one spot, turn around with your iPhone or iPad and follow the dots. 360 Image takes every shot for you and stitches them into one detailed 360° photo, up to 8K, that you can step back into any time. JUST TURN AROUND • One yellow dot shows where to aim next, and an arrow points the way when it is off screen. • Hold the dot in the circle and the shot is taken automatically, the moment the device is steady and sharp. • A tilt guide and clear on-screen tips keep every shot level and in place. • Exposure and white balance are locked for the whole capture, so the sky and the shadows match all the way round. STITCHED ON YOUR DEVICE • Your shots are stitched right on your iPhone or iPad. No account is needed. • Photos up to 8K: 8192 × 4096 pixels, over 33 megapixels. Zoom in, and the details are still there. • The app knows exactly where the camera pointed for every shot, and on devices with LiDAR it also measures how far away things are, so nearby objects line up. • Colours and brightness are matched between shots, and the seams are placed where the photos agree. LOOK AROUND BY MOVING • Turn your phone or iPad to look around, as if you were standing there again. • Drag with a finger, pinch to zoom, or switch motion control off. • One tap puts the horizon level. STEP INSIDE WITH DEPTH • Photos captured with depth let you move your head inside them: near things slide in front of far ones as you look around. • A small 3D model shows the photo’s surroundings and turns as you do. Open it full screen to turn and zoom it. • Share the 3D model as a USDZ file, a standard 3D format that opens in Reality Composer and other 3D apps. TOURS • Put photos of a place together into one 3D model, and step from photo to photo inside it. • The app works out where each photo was taken. If it can’t, or gets one wrong, drag the photo into place yourself. • Erase stray bits from the model. • Share the whole tour as one 3D model. Tours sync through iCloud. SEE WHERE YOU WERE • A small map shows where the photo was taken and which way you are looking. Tap it for a full-size map. • Street names on the ground, landmarks on the horizon, and the weather on the day the photo was taken. Each can be switched off. • Your other photos taken nearby appear inside the photo. Tap one to go there – between photos with depth, you fly from one into the next. KEEP AND SHARE • All your 360° photos in one gallery, as a grid or on a map. Filter by depth, location and compass. • With iCloud, your gallery is the same on all your devices. Nothing to set up. • Deleted photos stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days. • Save to Photos or share them at full resolution. Photos keep their 360° information, so apps and sites that support 360° photos show them as a sphere. • If you allow it, the place and direction are saved in the photo too. OPEN ANY 360° PHOTO • View 360° photos from other cameras and apps, from Photos or Files, or with “Open in 360 Image”. Import several at once. A device with LiDAR gives the best results with objects close to the camera.
