      Why Can't I Upload My ID / Profile Photos During Registration? (iPhone)

      To ensure your iPhone photos are uploaded as JPGs, go to Settings > Camera > Formats and select "Most Compatible" instead of "High Efficiency"

      To ensure your iPhone photos are uploaded as JPGs, go to Settings > Camera > Formats and select "Most Compatible" instead of "High Efficiency". This setting will save all new photos and videos in JPEG or H.264 format. 
       
       Here's a more detailed explanation:
      Access Camera Settings: Open the Settings app on your iPhone and tap on "Camera". 
       
      Select Formats: Within the Camera settings, tap on "Formats". 
       
      Choose Most Compatible: You'll see two options: "High Efficiency" (HEIF/HEVC) and "Most Compatible". Select "Most Compatible". 
       
      New Photos as JPG: After making this change, all new photos and videos will be saved in JPEG or H.264 format, ensuring they are uploaded as JPGs. 
       

      Existing Photos: This setting only affects new photos; existing photos in HEIC format will remain as such.
