A key headlining feature of modern iPhones is their ability to shoot HDR videos. But since HDR clips take up more space and most people don\u2019t have compatible displays to watch them in their full glory, the HDR feature is off by default. Here\u2019s how to enable it.<\/p>\n

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range.\u00a0It\u2019s a high-end feature that allows for better color reproduction in any given scene. When HDR is enabled, your iPhone is able to record a wider gamut of colors, and more accurately balances the contrast of the frame\u2019s darkest and lightest areas. On top of this, the iPhone\u2019s HDR capability supports Dolby Vision, which helps the target screen make the most out of all the extra visual data.<\/p>\n

To enable HDR video on your iPhone, first, open the \u201cSettings\u201d app<\/a>, and then scroll down to the Camera option.<\/p>\n

\"Visit<\/p>\n

Next, select \u201cRecord Video.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finally, toggle on \u201cHDR Video (High Efficiency).\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Enable<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> On the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini, HDR videos are capped at 30 frames per second. The higher-end iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max can go all the way up to 60fps. However, this might change on newer iPhones running different versions of iOS.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Before switching on HDR videos, keep in mind that they are recorded in the \u201cHigh Efficiency\u201d mode. This means that they\u2019ll be stored on your phone in the HEVC format instead of in the more broadly compatible MP4 file type. However, your iPhone can automatically convert HEVC videos to MP4, so you don\u2019t have to worry about doing that yourself before sharing HDR videos.<\/p>\n

As far as playback is concerned, most latest-gen phones and computers, including iPhones (iPhone X or above) and MacBooks (2018 or later), can play HDR videos without any hassle. On incompatible screens, your HDR video will play in the normal, lower-quality standard.<\/p>\n\n

Your iPhone houses many more camera tricks that you may not be familiar with. Here\u2019s how to get the best photos out of your iPhone\u2019s camera.<\/p>\n
