You can change your iPhone's/iPad's Transfer To Mac Or PC setting to Automatic. This setting automatically converts HEIC photos and HEVC (H.265) videos to the compatible formats JPEG and H.264 MOV when you transfer the media files from your mobile device to a Mac or PC.

On the device (iPhone or iPad) that you are using to capture the HEIC/HEVC media, go to Settings > Photo.
