Why HEIC files won't open everywhere
Since 2017, iPhones save photos in HEIC (High Efficiency Image Format) by default. It compresses better than JPG at the same quality, which is great for storage — but it isn't supported everywhere. Windows before a certain update, most Android phones, older software, and plenty of websites and forms still expect a plain JPG. That's when a HEIC photo shows up as a broken thumbnail or refuses to upload at all.
This tool converts HEIC and HEIF photos to JPG directly inside your browser using WebAssembly. Your photos are decoded and re-encoded on your own device — they're never sent to a server, so there's no upload wait and no privacy risk, even for personal photos.
How to convert HEIC to JPG
- Click the drop area above and select one or more HEIC/HEIF photos from your device.
- Adjust the output quality slider if you want smaller files (lower quality) or maximum detail (higher quality).
- Click "Convert to JPG." Each photo is processed locally — you'll see a live status next to each file.
- Download each JPG individually, or use "Download all as .zip" to get every converted photo in one file.
Common uses
People convert HEIC to JPG when they need to upload iPhone photos to a website that rejects HEIC, attach them to an email that a Windows or Android user can open, post them somewhere that doesn't recognize the format, or simply want files with the widest possible compatibility for archiving.
FAQ
Does converting HEIC to JPG reduce quality?
There's a small quality trade-off since JPG uses different compression than HEIC, but at 90% quality or higher the difference is generally not visible to the eye. Use the quality slider to control this.
Is there a limit on how many photos I can convert?
No. You can convert as many HEIC files as you like, one at a time or in a batch — there's no daily cap and no watermark.
Do my photos get uploaded to a server?
No. Every conversion happens locally in your browser using your device's own processing power. Your photos never leave your device.
What's the difference between HEIC and HEIF?
HEIF is the general container format; HEIC is Apple's specific implementation of it for photos. This tool handles both.
