Vibrancy

Unlike traditional saturation adjustments that uniformly increase chroma across all colors, vibrancy intelligently applies stronger boosts to less saturated colors and milder adjustments to already vivid colors, resulting in more balanced and visually appealing results.

Contrast Adjust

Use this tool to increase or decrease the contrast in your images. Values greater than 0 increase the contrast. Values less than 0 decrease the contrast.
