Questions
How do I open a DNG file?
Open it in Photostar in your web browser. It develops the raw data on your device and shows the photo.
How do I convert DNG to JPG without Lightroom?
Open the DNG in Photostar, choose File → Export As, pick JPEG and click Export. It is free.
Why does my DNG look darker or flatter than on my phone?
Phones apply their own processing when they show a photo. A raw file starts neutral, so use Auto Tone or the Camera Raw Filter to bring it to life.
