Hi there  
I built an app for property inspections. All photos are taken on an iphone. I discovered that i cant pass on these images to docsautomator or pdf monkey because of the heic file format the images are in. Any solutions? Can i convert inside of glide? Do i need to use external platforms?

Change iPhone Camera Settings:

You can avoid the issue at the source by changing your iPhone settings to always save as JPEG:

Go to Settings → Camera → Formats

Choose Most Compatible instead of High Efficiency

You can use this action. It converts to JPG for me.

Hi @NoToxRox_Office, actually DocsAutomator auto converts HEIC, so you should be able to pass it directly. Best, Rupert
