Spent hours on a edit only to have the colors look wrong on phones.

I finished a video on my computer and thought it looked great. After I posted it, comments said the colors were messed up on mobile screens. What do you do to make sure your videos look good everywhere?

Ugh, I read something about this exact problem. Phone screens often boost colors way more than a good monitor, so what looks fine on your computer looks crazy bright on mobile. @the_piper knows the pain. I started exporting a version in sRGB color space for online stuff, not the bigger color spaces some editing software uses. Now I always pull the final file onto my own phone to check it before I hit post.

Ever notice how phones screw with saturation? My last video looked so washed out on mobile after I finished it.

Share your frustration, my last edit looked great on monitor but horrible on every phone.
