// In your FlutterFlow custom functions
Future<Uint8List> convertHeicToPng(Uint8List heicData) async {

Future<Uint8List> convertHeicToJpg(Uint8List heicData, int quality) async {
  return await HeicConverter.convertToJPG(heicData: heicData, quality: quality);

Notes #

• Mobile: Uses the heif_converter package for iOS and Android, which requires temporary file operations.
• Web: Uses the libheif-js package, it auto loads it the background no need to add it to web/index.html.
• Fallback: If heif_converter fails or is unsupported, the package falls back to the image package, which may have limited HEIC support.
