Why is it that when i take a photo on my canon camera and upload it to the canon connect app on my iphone 14 the Photos appear underexposed than what was shown to me on my Canon camera?

Many possible reasons. First, the brightness of your phone screen is variable. What is the setting of your phone display brightness.

OK. Looks like your phone is max brightness. How much darker than your camera. Do cellphone pics you take look OK?

My canon camera LED screen brightness was set to 5 and it goes up to 7. my iphone takes pictures perfectly. This is from my iphone

And this was taken from my canon uploaded to my iphone via canon connect, my iso was pretty high given i took the pic in a darker setting but i thought upping the iso would give the photo more exposure and my Shutter speed is 1/60
