iPad JPEG Format

11th August 2020

With the latest update to Apples iOS, the default photo format has changed from JPEG to HEIC.  If you are not on the latest Windows 10 update you will struggle to open this format.  To remedy this follow the steps below.

1. Open the “Settings” app on your iPad and tap the “Camera” menu option.
2. Tap the “Formats” menu selection, and then tap “Most Compatible” to tell the iPhone camera to save your photos in the old JPEG format.
3. Exit the Settings app.
