What is a HEIC file?
HEIC stands for High Efficiency Image Container. It’s a modern image file format developed by Apple in 2017 as part of the HEIF (High Efficiency Image Format) standard. HEIC uses advanced compression to store high-quality images in smaller file sizes compared to older formats like JPG. This format became widely known with the release of iOS 11 and macOS High Sierra.
HEIC supports a range of features, such as 16-bit color depth, transparency, and even storing image sequences or bursts — making it ideal for Live Photos on Apple devices. It's efficient, but not yet universally supported.
How to open HEIC files
HEIC files are natively supported on Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac). Windows 10 and 11 can also open them with additional codecs available via the Microsoft Store. For Linux or unsupported apps, third-party tools and online converters like AnyConv can help.
For broader compatibility, many users convert HEIC images to JPG or PNG when sharing with others or uploading online.
