What about the new photo and video formats? Are they on 5s?
The new HEIC and HEVC formats require an A10 chip and above, so iPhone 7 and up
New photo formats even on 6s? Does it set itself or do we have to manually and how?
The new HEIC and HEVC formats require an A10 chip and above, so iPhone 7 and up
iPhone 6… ? Because I can't read!?
I would also be interested in those formats…. there is nothing in the settings on the iP 6 and it still takes pictures in JPG...
Because you don't have the right chip ;) new formats are only from iPhone 7

I'm crazy about applications, or their distribution sometimes when I scroll
I have a question – are you doing well (as promised) in iOS 11 fetching email using Push? it's Gmail... thanks for the answer
