What is a HEIC file?

A HEIC file is a type of image file that uses the High Efficiency Image Container (HEIC) format.

HEIC files are also compatible with live photos and dual cameras on iPhones and iPads. However, HEIC files are not widely supported by other devices or platforms. So you may need to convert them to JPEG or PNG files if you want to view or edit them on different devices.
