About HEIC

HEIC (HEVC-coded HEIF image)

HEVC-compressed images in a HEIF container. iPhones have saved photos this way by default since iOS 11 in 2017, at much smaller sizes than JPG, but Windows and many websites cannot open them without extra codecs. Convert HEIC to JPG or PNG to open iPhone photos on Windows, upload them to sites that reject HEIC, or share them.

About AVIF

AV1 Image File Format

An image format from the Alliance for Open Media, finalized in 2019, that stores AV1-compressed images in a HEIF container. It supports lossy and lossless compression, alpha and HDR, and its files are often smaller than WebP. Use it for web images when you want the smallest files; current Chrome, Firefox and Safari all display it.
