The most popular HEIC file conversions
With the iPhone 11 release, so many people are experiencing a major headache due to the HEIC/HEIF file formats. Nothing is wrong with these innovative formats, in fact, they have high-quality lighter images than their JPEG counterparts. All the iPhone 6s and later devices store photos in this format. Well, the Apple users are saved storage space and mobile bandwidth thanks to the HEIC (High-Efficiency Image Format).
The catch is the format is still new in the market and other than the IOS platform, the rest don’t natively support them. Being Apple’s new flavor, imagine the number of people not using IOS but still receiving shared photos in this format. The good news is you can convert them to JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF or any other suitable format.
