# Add HEIF/HEIC support to Kubuntu 22.04
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Besides my DSLR I also use an iPhone 24 Pro for photography. The native image format of the iPhones is HEIF/HEIC. However, Kubuntu 22.04 LTS does not support HEIF/HEIC image format out-of-the-box.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## QT/KDE applications
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There exists a good plugin that must be installed from source code to enable format support for all Qt/KDE applications [qt-heic-image-plugin](https://github.com/novomesk/qt-heic-image-plugin). Besides what is noted in the tools [README.md](https://github.com/novomesk/qt-heic-image-plugin/blob/main/README.md), you must also install the relevant dependencies:
|
||||||
|
```shell
|
||||||
|
$ apt install \
|
||||||
|
build-essential \
|
||||||
|
cmake extra-cmake-modules \
|
||||||
|
libheif1 libheif-dev
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
And then proceed with the tool documentation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## GTK Applications
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To also enable support for GTK based applications also install:
|
||||||
|
```shell
|
||||||
|
$ apt install heif-gdk-pixbuf heif-thumbnailer
|
||||||
|
```
