HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container)
Apple's standard for high-quality, space-saving mobile photography.
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default image format for iPhones and iPads. Introduced by Apple in 2017 (iOS 11), it is based on the HEVC (H.265) video compression standard. HEIC was designed to solve a specific problem: smartphone cameras were capturing more detail than ever, filling up storage space rapidly. HEIC files are roughly half the size of JPEGs with equivalent quality, effectively doubling the number of photos a user can store on their device. While technically superior to JPEG, HEIC is hindered by patent licensing issues, which has prevented it from being supported natively in web browsers like Chrome and Firefox. It remains primarily a storage and capture format rather than a web delivery format.
HEIC is a container format (based on ISO Base Media File Format) that wraps HEVC-encoded image data. Because it is a container, a single .heic file can hold multiple images (like a burst shot or a Live Photo), audio, and depth map data for portrait mode effects. It supports up to 16-bit color, enabling it to capture the wide color gamut (P3) used by Apple's displays and cameras. This is a significant upgrade over JPEG's 8-bit sRGB limitation.
The HEIF standard was finalized by MPEG in 2015. Apple adopted it in 2017, instantly making it one of the most common image formats in the world by volume of photos taken. Microsoft added support to Windows 10 via an extension, and Android added native support in version 10 (2019).
JPEG Network Graphics
JPEG compression with PNG transparency.
JNG (JPEG Network Graphics) is a sub-format of the MNG animation format. It was designed to combine the high compression of JPEG with the alpha transparency features of PNG, something that standard JPEG lacks. It essentially wraps a JPEG stream and a mask channel in a chunk-based container.
A JNG file structure mimics PNG. It uses a 8-byte signature and chunks. The image data is split into a color chunk (JDAT) which contains JPEG data, and an alpha chunk (IDAT) which contains PNG-compressed alpha mask. This allows for 'lossy color, lossless alpha' images, which is very space-efficient for photographic sprites.
Created by the PNG Development Group around 2001 as part of the MNG (Multiple-image Network Graphics) project. It failed to gain traction as MNG was rejected by Mozilla and Chromium in favor of APNG and later WebP.
