What is an .HEIC file?
HEIC files are images saved in the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). iOS devices began storing captured photos as HEIC images in 2017 when Apple released iOS 11. Apple switched to the HEIF format because it stores images in a smaller file size than the JPEG format without sacrificing image quality.
If you share an image captured by your iPhone (7 or later) or iPad (6th generation or later) with iOS 11 or later installed, the device automatically converts it to the JPEG format. However, you may acquire a HEIC file if you download a photo directly from iCloud Photos or share an image you took with your iOS device as a HEIC file via AirDrop. Or, a friend or coworker may email you a HEIC image they took on their iOS device. Regardless of the case, you can use File Viewer Plus to view and edit HEIC images or convert them to one of several more common image formats.
