HEIC photos - how can I make JPG the default?

[Android Central Question]

Hello,

Hoping you can help. I have a Samsung A40 and my phone suddenly is using HEIC (which I've never heard of) as my photo default. When I attach photos to email people can't open them... it also tells me I can't open them?! Help please!

Welcome to Android Central! Look in the Camera app's settings. Is there an option there to select the default format?
