Colors are so different on iphone vs macbook

If it’s a M1-M4 MacBook Pro, the display should be well calibrated out of the factory, and so should an iPhone 15 Pro, both with P3 gamut, HDR capable displays. Yes, they might be different, but when all settings are the same they should be more similar than two other random devices.

If TrueTone and Night Shift are definitely disabled on both the MacBook Pro and the iPhone, there’s one other possible thing to check: On both On your MacBook Pro, which Preset is selected in System Settings > Displays as shown in the picture below? (or Control Center > Display)

(In the picture below, in the third section of the menu are my presets so you won’t have those.)

Hi @lauren_1375, welcome to the community!

Totally understand how that can be frustrating. Screens can be tricky, colors often look different depending on the device, whether it’s your computer, your phone, or someone else’s screen on Instagram.

The best thing you can do is color calibrate your monitor and trust what you see there. Every device displays things a little differently, so unfortunately, there’s no way to control how others will see it.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Thanks so much,
Alek
