Support for Heic Images

[quickjeff]

Hi Everyone, 

As many of you know, iPhone photos save in .heic unless the user changes the settings in their phone. 

We have built a web app on top of processwire in which a user can save images from their phone. 

The issue we are having is that there seems to be an error when uploading and saving. 

The .heic files won't save and processwire throws an error. The environment is LAMP (Bitnami and all libraries have been installed to support this.) 

Checking to see if someone has also encountered this here and how they solved it.

Thanks.

What's the error message you get? Maybe a stupid question, but did you enable .heic in the image field's allowed extensions?
