What is HEIC?
HEIC is the default photo format used by iPhones since iOS 11. It produces smaller file sizes than JPG while maintaining quality โ great for storage, but a headache when sharing.
Why Convert HEIC to JPG?
Most Windows computers, older Android devices, and many websites don't support HEIC. JPG works everywhere.
Common reasons:

- Printing at photo labs
