Format description
HEIC is a new graphics format, containing one or more images stored in the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). This format, which is more efficient than JPEG, is heavily pushed by Apple on iOS and MacOS.However, other operating systems may not be able to open such files, so it is a good idea to convert to another image format with wider adoption (JPG, PNG, or more efficient ones like WebP, JXL, or AVIF) when sending a photo from an iPhone, for example.
