Leaving Apple’s ecosystem with a file the web will cache
Camera and Photos write HEIC. WordPress, Shopify, and most CDNs do not want that container. This spoke is strictly Apple users who need a deployable asset: blog frames, shop photos, S3 drops — without AirDropping to a Mac “because that is how we have always exported.” An iOS-minded path: pick from the gallery or a Files export, encode WebP locally, publish. Keep High Efficiency on the camera. Convert what you ship. Client galleries stay private because bytes never leave the machine to reach us. Hub is the general tool. Core Web Vitals detail is the websites spoke. Phone-only steps are the mobile spoke. JPEG if the CMS is ancient.
