What is a HEIC file?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default image format for new photos on iPhones and iPads. It is based on the HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) standard and offers high quality at about half the file size of an equivalent JPEG.
Our Online HEIC Viewer solves the compatibility issue, allowing you to view Apple photos on Windows, Linux, or Android devices without installing paid extensions.
