HEIC will be used by default on new photos on iOS 11, and it's designed to save you storage space. Due to the popularity of iphone, this update would go a long way to allowing teachers to upload pictures of the class on the fly without having to convert the images first.
Still waiting...Our 1:1 iPad program needs this enhancement. Your review and consideration would be greatly appreciated.
Still looking for this update!
Yes, we would appreciate this as well!
We would really like this feature, also!

Please, please allow this file format to be uploaded!
