Support new High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF) in Box Preview (Desktop/Mobile)
In iOS 11 Apple has changed the default camera image format from JPEG to HEIF. So, if you have an iPhone 7/8 your photos are now in a *.heic files and not *.jpg. If you try to upload a HEIC file to Box you will not be able to preview the file. Same goes for mobile. We want the ability to preview these images in Box
