Show HN: Use MacBook Pro in outdoor sun by unlocking higher brightness (apps.apple.com)

4 points by steinvakt2 ↗ HN
I made a free macOS App Store app that unlocks higher brightness (actually higher nits, not just a color filter). It works by forcing HDR content. I've only tested it on my MacBook Pro 14" M5, but I assume it works on most modern macbooks.

The description says "The best screen poster", but it's meant to say "The best screen booster" (overly aggressive autocorrect in macOS probably).

It’s going to be 104°F/40°C where I live today. I think working in the outdoor sun might be a bad idea for me. For others though, cool idea!
