ComfyUI Load Image (HEIC)

Custom node for ComfyUI that behaves like the standard Load Image node, but also supports .heic / .heif.

Install

1. Copy this folder into: D:\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\ComfyUI_LoadHEICImage\
2. Install dependency in the same Python env as ComfyUI:

pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Restart ComfyUI.

Node

• Category: image
• Node: Load Image (HEIC)
• Outputs: IMAGE, MASK

The dropdown lists images from ComfyUI input/ folder (upload/drag&drop saves files there automatically), including .heic/.heif.

Drag & drop note

If dropping a .heic shows "Unable to find workflow...", it means the frontend treated the file as a workflow drop. This extension intercepts .heic/.heif drops and uploads them to input/. For best results, drop onto the node widget, or select the Load Image (HEIC) node first and then drop.

Known issues

HEIC upload via file picker does not work

• The "Choose file to upload" (system file picker) is filtered to standard image extensions.
• Even if you manually pick a .heic (e.g. by switching the filter to All files), ComfyUI currently does not upload the HEIC file via that path.
• Workaround: upload HEIC/HEIF via drag & drop.
