Default HEIC upload - Apple's new format

Any chance we can get support for this format to upload? I can upload from my phone which the picture was taken with, but on my MAC the same pic in HEIC is not supported?

Or.... am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: it's working now.

I'm not sure what you mean. Have an iphone and I always have been able to upload pics in jpeg format. Since I have one too then I'm going to need to know about it.

Here's some info on HEIC:

It must be something with the MacBook?
  • Take a pic on the phone
  • Pics sync with Mac via iCould.
  • Pics on MacBook are in HEIC format and fail to upload because of a non supported file type
  • However; Same pic can upload from iPhone without issue

I created a dedicated automator workflow to convert HEIC to JPEG. Simply start the workflow, drag the images to it and run it, and bingo they are all jpegs. Here's the "how-to" that used for the setup. Works great and is extremely quick.
