About HEIC to JPEG conversion
HEIC is introduced in 2015 and adopted by Apple in iOS 11 (2017) and is the the default on every modern iPhone for iPhone photos, Apple ecosystem. JPEG was created by Joint Photographic Experts Group in 1992 and is best for photographs, web images. Note: JPEG doesn't support transparency. Any transparent areas in your HEIC file will appear white in the converted JPEG. HEIC files can be a problem when their support is limited — converting to JPEG solves compatibility issues.
