Some of us don't have iPhones for the "blue bubbles", but because they provide a very good photographic experience for the device price.
Thankfully, many colleges are phasing out the SAT (College Boards) and ACT (ACT, Inc) due to racial disparities anyway.
HEIC isn't so much a royalty fee as a certification free, last I checked around $100, but that's from memory because non-commercial use is free. Thoughts, if SAT/ACT is non-profit, would that be non-commercial and free? (note: a lot more Googling found that servers pay $480 to accept .heif files, not even their TP budget)
If you send the file to another device, Apple automatically converts it to jpeg.
This feels like Apple hate. As a person with plenty of self-apple hate, I feel like this story is FUD.
The College Boards failed to adequately prepare. I took the SAT 4-6 times just to get the BEST score possible and I get into PSU Pre-Med (State College, PA), so I guess it worked. My 1st test was in 7th grade (NO it was NOT the pSAT, it was the full SAT; I just did really well because they hadn't banned analogies: I was DAMN good at those)
Example:
PALTRY : SIGNIFICANCE ::
A. redundant : discussion
B. austere : landscape
C. opulent : wealth
D. oblique : familiarity
E. banal : originality
PALTRY is to SIGNIFICANCE as banal is to originality
Sorry for the tangent. My point was that this was POOR PLANNING (mainly by The College Board), not Apple)
