Photos darken after being taken on instagram

My photos lighting tends to decrease once the photo is taken on instagram. I notice it only did that after I upgraded to the iPhone 14. My iPhone 11 and iPhone 8 does not do it; even currently. I deleted the app and downloaded it back. I turned the phone off and on. How can this be fixed?

iPhone 14 Plus, iOS 16

iPhone 16 pro max issues The camera when I used it in instagram takes dark photos, I’ve updated all camera settings and Instagram media setting, still experiencing this issue. Also the screen sensitivity is not working correctly, I have to tap the screen many times for one selection. why is such an expensive “advanced” phone so glitchy, I contacted apple and apparently everything is ok with the phone so I guess is just mean to be defective.

iphone 11 pro brightens every dark photo Iphone 11 pro brightens every dark photo. when I take a photo or just enter to camera to take a photo, the brightness in iphone changed to dark. When I take a photo of a person in dark light, it takes the photo and looks good… but as soon as I view it in photos it automatically changes it to a bright photo like it’s in good lighting. I’ve already turned off night mode, exposure down, etc. There seems to be no way to stop this. I’ve preserved settings and turned everything off, yet still it brightens every photo - and I don’t mean a slight adjustment.. it’s taking a dark photo and making it bright. Please tell me how to fix this. It happens on both front and facing cameras. Andrew

Did you check, if "Most Compatible" is enabled in the Camera Capture settings?

In earlier iPhone models, like your iPhone 11 and 8, you could disable the HEIF format, to export your photos as JPEG.
