Color Changes from Desktop to Mobile

I have had this issue for years, and I haven't found a single solution, and I'm at my wits end. I work on an image from Photoshop, save the image as a PNG, and send it to my email or on a social platform to save on my phone. I go to look at it on my phone... and the colors are completely different. Its like my images are cursed. They look fine on a computer, but the colors drastically change. I understand that phones aren't capable of showing a wide spectrum of colors like desktop... but why does it not seem like a problem to literally anyone else where the colors change? I had to pick a random photo and edit it myself to mimic the effect it does when compared to my desktop, to mobile. First image is how it looks like on desktop/photoshop, second is seeing or saving said image to my phone... Its super discouraging to me and makes me want to quit digital art all together because after all my years of researching and trying to edit the photos myself to try to match it... I have given up.

Why do you choose PNG format?

    First off: Please provide more meaningful information about the Color Settings you employ in Photoshop and whether you, as recommended by NB__colourmanagement, work sensibly – in sRGB and embedding the profile. 

     

    Secondly: Color management is not generally implemented in Smart Phones in a meaningful way. 

    So comparing the appearance of images on a proper image editing computer station and a smart phone is fairly close to useless.

      Hi

       

      You don't describe the differences you're seeing but I'll make an assumption about that -

       

      To display Photoshop images better on handheld devices try converting your images to sRGB - or for recent models you might try display P3. when you save - save with the ICC profile embedded. 

       

      I hope this helps

      if so, please "like" my reply and if you're OK now, please mark it as "correct", so that others who have similar issues can see the solution

      thanks

        Adding to what Neil said, some phones have settings that "enhance" (i.e., usually super saturate) colors, throwing everything off. This is also usually on by default, compounding things even more.

         

        To be honest? If you've calibrated your monitor's color correctly, that's not your fault that the image's colors don't quite look the same on other devices. That's on them, not you. You're never going to achieve 100% parity with other devices anyway; don't worry too much about it.
