What is HEIC? It is a new file format released by Apple to store photos in less space while ensuring good image quality. Since iOS 11, HEIC is the default format for photos taken with iPhone.

But HEIC can't be recognized on other platforms and iOS older than iOS 11. This is the reason why you can't open and edit your HEIC photos on Windows, Android, and other systems.
