iOS HEIC Photo Conversion

[Ah Pook]

New problem with iOS. Need a way to convert HEIC to JPG, JPEG, PNG... Everything, on the phone, is set to convert to JPG but photos are not recognized in other formats. I've tried converter apps but not much luck.

TIA

I went down this road. Do a support chat with apple, as you have some options based on where your 'camera roll' homes your photos, your use/nonuse of icloud, and if you use a PC.

There are a number of free converters
I use a free one called HEIC to JPG from Duckhead software

This one works. Free.

If you go into your camera settings- formats and change High Efficiency to Most Compatible, they will be saved as jpegs.
