Made this feature request originally in: [Support camera upload for iOS Live Photos](https://forums.plex.tv/t/support-camera-upload-for-ios-live-photos/188663) - you may want to ‘like’ that request too.

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate

> [@HEIC/HEIF support in photo libraries (new photo format for iPhones)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/heic-heif-support-in-photo-libraries-new-photo-format-for-iphones/195514):
>
> Starting with iOS 11, (and already now in the beta) iPhone pics will be taken in HEIC/HEIF format instead of JPEG. (Video format changing too - not sure what that one is called). It will almost overnight become one of the most popular formats on the web. Please make sure those files are respected and processed in video libraries. Click like to vote for this!
