There are plenty of websites that will convert the files to jpg but since we primarily house our photos in Google Drive, that added an extra step requiring students to download the photo from Drive on their computer, upload it to the conversion site, redownload it and then finally upload it to WordPress or our yearbook site. While it is possible to turn the format off by going to Settings>Camera>Formats and selecting Most Compatible, most will probably prefer to keep their phones on the High Efficiency format to save space. This format is also what allows a user to pick an individual frame from those live photos to use as a still image. The High Efficiency Image Container file format is what allows iPhone users to save live photos (essentially mini videos) without completely killing their storage. In 2017 with the rollout of iOS 11, Apple introduced a new default format they used to save photos. The culprit we discovered is the HEIC file. Like many advisers, this fall my students encountered an issue with getting photos they’d taken on their iPhones to upload to our website or online yearbook software.
