Problem

Pixel phones boast excellent cameras, and the latest upgrade, Ultra HDR, enhances images with brighter highlights and more vibrant colors. However, some users find this feature excessively bright, especially in low-light conditions, making images challenging to view. Additionally, certain third-party gallery apps don’t support Ultra HDR images, prompting users to disable it.

Solution: Disable Ultra HDR

  1. Open the Camera app and tap the Settings icon at the bottom left.
  2. Tap “More Settings” at the bottom right, then select “Advanced.”
  3. Scroll down and toggle off the “Ultra HDR” option.
