Preparing file upload...
HEIC files are 30-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality. Converting your JPG photo library to HEIC can free up significant storage on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
If you're importing photos into an Apple Photos library that uses HEIC, converting JPGs to HEIC keeps your library consistent and storage-efficient.
Smaller HEIC files sync faster to iCloud and use less of your iCloud storage quota.
