HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format since iOS 11. It produces smaller files than JPEG while maintaining quality, but isn't universally supported.

Why can't I upload HEIC photos?

Most websites, government forms, and older applications only accept JPEG and PNG. Converting HEIC to JPEG makes your photos universally compatible.

Which browsers support HEIC?

Safari (all versions on macOS/iOS) and Chrome 107+ support HEIC. Firefox and older Chrome do not. If your browser doesn't support HEIC, try Safari.

How to stop iPhone saving as HEIC?

Go to Settings → Camera → Formats → select "Most Compatible". This saves photos as JPEG directly, but files will be larger.
