Luckily, you can disable saving images as HEIC on an iOS 11 device by going to Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible, which will force iOS 11 to save images in the JPEG format. Third-party apps or computer programs can still have difficulties interpreting HEIC files, though. However, HEIC files still have compatibility issues, even though they are already posted and saved to social media or cloud storage as JPG images since they are automatically converted. With transparency and the ability to store more than one image, HEIC files can also contain 16-bit colors, whereas JPG files can only support 8-bit. The lossy compressed HEIC format is based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Compression), also developed by MPEG. JPG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPG is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly those produced by digital photography. Furthermore, it stores information about image editing like rotation and cropping, which enables the user to revert the changes later on. Furthermore, HEIC files can contain several images which fit Apple's "Live Photo" functionality. As a result, it's smaller in size with comparable quality while also supporting transparency. Being the new default or standard image format for iOS 11 devices, HEIC was designed to replace the JPG format.
The HEIC format was developed by MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), otherwise known for video and audio formats such as MP3 or MP4. It is also known under the acronym of HEIF, which stands for High-Efficiency Image Format.
