High Efficiency Image Container (.heic)

HEIC, abbreviated from High-Efficiency Image Container, is an image file container that uses High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC, ITU-T H.265) for storing multiple images in a single file. HEIC is used natively in Apple iOS and macOS devices and each photo takes up about half the space of an equivalent quality JPEG file.
