Turn off auto enhance on Instagram iPhone 15 Pro etc.

I found this happening with my iPhone 11 repeatedly and now on my 15. Insta applies this dreamy washed out filter to all photos posted and there is no overcoming it. Ill delete Insta on my phone, give it a few days, and lets see...

Same issue here. All latest versions. Same photo works fine on iPhone 14 Pro but not 15 pro …

Putting my iPhone 15 Pro Max in Low Power Mode worked for me too. thank you.

Weird… that ugly Instagram Auto Enhance affects PRO RAW, HEIF, Wide Angle, 24 mm, 120 mm…

Apple, please fix it. Thx!

Turn off your Auto HDR and you are good to go :)

Experiencing same issue :(

This is happening to me too! :( I have the iphone 15 pro max. What’s going on?!

Someone recommended turning your phone to low battery mode and it worked!!

No new solution or Update by Instagram which fixes this I know of.

The fix on the iPhone however is still the same: Put it on „Low Power“ Mode, so that the Battery Icon turns yellow for the time you upload Images to Insta…

Cheers

omg it actually worked

Hi everyone, I’m also experiencing this issue, and here’s a solution: Go to Settings > Camera > Formats > and turn on Apple ProRaw. That's it! Then, start taking photos in RAW mode (the button is on the top right corner). After the photo is taken, you may still see auto enhancement when viewing it, but if you start editing the photo—such as adjusting exposure or contrast—you’ll notice the enhancement is gone.

I only use this method when I want to take a photo seriously. You can also export the RAW file to a computer without the enhancement. Hope this helps!

This photo is taken by 15x zoom condition, the default camera has an AI-generated aesthetic and the words appear to be processed and fused together :(

It's somewhat simple. When you open Instagram roll down to the control center, you'll find two options: effects and microphone. Click on effects and turn off whatever you want. Hope it helps!

Hi everyone,

As far as posting goes, I learned that if you put the photo into the app FACETUNE, and then save it(NO EDITING NEEDED). The photo then uploads to instagram without the weird filter changes. Worked for me so give it a try!

Hi! I think I figured it out, but I’m not sure. When you go to settings->camera->photographic styles, mine phone was already set on “vibrant”, but you can swipe through to standard and it seems to have worked for me, at least for the few pics i took after of my cat to check. I hope this is the solution! 🫶🏻

I am experiencing the same issue! iPhone 15 ProMax is not a good investment. You look ugly on selfies, like your face is dirty even though it's not and I hate the auto enhance feature on instagram.

did someone figure out how to turn that off?

I think I figured out a solution. Instagram is preset to not upload at highest quality unless that option is turned on. Go to settings “media quality” and turn that setting on. The filters on Instagram should then work.
