Why are my iPhone photos in HEIC format?

Apple uses HEIC (High Efficiency Image Coding) as the default format on iPhones since iOS 11 because it offers better compression than JPEG while maintaining quality. However, it's not universally compatible, which is why many users convert to JPG or PNG.

How do I stop my iPhone from saving photos as HEIC?

Go to Settings > Camera > Formats and select "Most Compatible" instead of "High Efficiency". This will save photos as JPEG instead of HEIC going forward.

When should I use PNG instead of JPEG?

Use PNG when you need transparency, for images with text or sharp edges, for graphics and logos, or when you'll be editing the image multiple times. JPEG is better for photographs where file size matters more than perfect quality.
