Will my iPhone 5 be able to open the new hevc/heif camera format?

hi, I was wondering if the new camera format the heif/hevc format can be opened by my iPhone 5?

No, it requires iOS 11 which is not supported by your iPhone 5. Third party apps may be able to open them.

The iPhone 5 will soon be kind of obsolete,as it cannot run apps made for or updated to the new 64 bit architecture.

No, iphone 5 is not compatible with iOS 11. Buy another phone if u want to get this feature.5s at least.

If stuff leaves the original device the photo or video was taken with, it's always converted to jpeg/H264 on the fly. No need to worry.

will that be the same if it's uploaded to Google drive and then shared?
