You AirDrop photos from an iPhone to a PC and… nothing opens them. Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos as HEIC — a great format for storage, a terrible one for sharing. Windows, older Android phones, many websites and most upload forms still want JPG.
Conversion runs at 92% quality — visually identical to the original.
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) stores the same photo at roughly half the file size of JPG. That's why Apple adopted it: twice the photos in the same iPhone storage. The catch is compatibility — two decades of software was built around JPG.
If you'd rather never deal with HEIC again: Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible. Your iPhone will shoot JPG directly — at the cost of larger files.
