Lightroom for Android now comes with Ultra HDR image editing - The Verge

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Google’s newest OS supports the new image format, and it stands to make a big change for the better in how our smartphone photos look.

Viewing an HDR image requires the right display and software that supports the format, which most people don’t have at the moment.

It uses a wider range of light and dark tones to express an image — closer to what we see with our own eyes — and on an HDR display, that comes across as brighter whites rather than the flat grey tones that we often associate with “HDR” photography.

If you’re viewing it on a device that isn’t supported, as is the case with my Pixel 8 review unit right now — this portion of the histogram will appear in red.

If you can access HDR editing, you’ll be able to make adjustments as usual and also toggle on a preview for SDR displays.

For now, Adobe recommends exporting images as AVIF files, which Google Chrome supports.
