Hi, I viewed previous questions about this and I see this issue hasn’t been resolved. When I airdrop videos I record on my iPhone to my iPad, I’m noticing that they playback too overexposed on my iPad photos app, even though the video thumbnail in the gallery looks fine. Can anyone help with this please? I use an iPhone 12 Pro.
iPad, iPadOS 16
I just wanted to follow up to say that it might be some error in the file transfer process. I simply airdropped it again, ie sent a second copy over, and it played fine. Then I deleted the first copy. For anyone who might be experiencing this!

Report this to Apple:
Seems to be catching on, seeing this in recent posts. So most certainly report it.
Do your part: Let Apple know what is going on here. Provide them with feedback on this. They may not get back to you directly, but the more feedback they received on this, the more they will know what is going on, and what needs to be fixed in updates to come.

Thank you for the screenshot.
What is the file type? See what happens when you play back MP4 files, vs AVI files. If it is a file type issue, then it is likely a bug in the iPadOS.

Internal storage cannot be upgraded. It is what it is. So, the maximum internal storage capacity never increases, even if you upgraded your iCloud plan. Learn More here: What's the Difference Between Device Storage and iCloud Storage? Apple Support

It's probably a Setting in relevance to Accessibility.

I don’t think so actually. It’s not brightness, apologies. It’s exposure. The video plays back very overexposed even though it didn’t look that way when I was recording it on my phone, and looks normal when I play it on my phone.
I am having the same issue. Some videos (but not all), whether received via Messages or even on viewed on Facebook, are overexposed when viewing on my iPad but are fine when viewing on my iPhone or iMac. I cannot figure out what the problem is. It started a couple of months ago.
