HEIC to JPG

Convert iPhone HEIC photos to JPG so they open on any computer, phone or website. The conversion runs on your device.

iPhones and many recent phones save photos as HEIC, a format that keeps good quality in smaller files. Many Windows computers, older apps and upload forms can't open it, though. HEIC to JPG converts the photo to a standard JPG that works almost everywhere. The photo is decoded and converted inside your browser, so it never leaves your device, and the converted JPG does not include the location, camera and date details stored in the original.

Questions

What is a HEIC file?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the photo format iPhones use by default since iOS 11. It stores photos in about half the space of a JPG at similar quality, but many computers and websites still can't open it.

Will the JPG look the same?

Yes, for normal viewing. The JPG is saved at high quality. JPG files are usually larger than the HEIC original, because JPG compression is less efficient.

Can I convert several HEIC photos at once?

This tool converts one photo at a time. If a single HEIC file holds several images, such as a burst, the first image is converted.

How do I make my iPhone take JPG photos instead?

On the iPhone, open Settings, then Camera, then Formats, and choose Most Compatible. New photos are then saved as JPG. Photos you already took stay in HEIC.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The HEIC decoder runs in your browser, so the photo stays on your device.
