What is a HEIF file?
HEIF is a modern image format that offers better compression and quality than JPEG. It supports animations, transparency, and multiple images in one file — similar to a container format.
Apple adopted HEIF as the default photo format in iOS 11, replacing JPEG for new photos.
How to open HEIF files
HEIF files can be opened on iOS and macOS devices natively, and on Windows 10+ with extensions. Software like GIMP and Photoshop (with plugins) also support HEIF.
To convert HEIF to JPG or PNG, AnyConv provides a fast and reliable online option.
