Why Convert HEIC to AVIF file?

HEIC and AVIF are both modern, highly efficient image formats, but they use different underlying codecs and aren't universally interchangeable — AVIF in particular has stronger native support across web browsers. Converting your iPhone's HEIC photos to AVIF gives you a format that's more reliably viewable on websites and in browsers without extra plugins.

Both formats compress aggressively while preserving good visual quality, so the difference between them is usually subtle. AVIF often achieves slightly smaller file sizes at comparable quality, making it a solid choice specifically for web use.
