There must be some way to adjust the colours of your computer's screen to make them look the closest to your phone's... or maybe your phone's colours are the ones that are "wrong"...? Have you checked the screen settings in both of them? :(
You could also try buying a good monitor if you don't have one already. You could not only get better colours but also a bigger screen that way! The colours on my laptop's screen look like shit too, and even though I still get mad with how things always look slightly different on my phone (keep in mind there might always be a tiny difference no matter how good your computer and phone are, unfortunately) at least now the tones are much closer to what they look like on the monitor I'm currently using (I found it in the basement
)
If playing around with your computer/monitor's settings isn't enough, I guess the best thing you could do is buying a calibrator, although some of them are a bit expensive... I got a Calibrite Display Pro HL, and even though I haven't used it yet (i don't know how it works,,
), a similar model did wonders on my dad's monitor!
I hope you can find a solution for this!! Even though you're definitely a phone pro, I believe drawing on tablet might be more comfortable for you over time...? Or at least it surely is for me hahaha. So good luck!!

That’s a mood… but phone art was a pain for me because I had a small screen to work with.
Once I got a job, I saved up for an iPad. Bought a Amazon refurbished one, and between it, a case, a style (not an Apple Pencil), and a keyboard (because I like to write), I spent about $350 or so.

•My only hypothesis is maybe it’s something do with the file if that makes sense. Maybe there’s a setting that needs to be changed for when you save the file. Or maybe your computer just doesn’t like you, who knows

I thought the problem was when i transferred my drawings to my phone, BUT NO???? I tried posting something directly from my computer AND IT WAS STILL GRAY
