Convert HEIC to JPG

Turn iPhone HEIC and HEIF photos into JPGs that open everywhere. Drop a whole batch, set the quality once, and download them all. It runs in your browser, so your photos are not uploaded.

Why this happens

Great format, awkward compatibility

HEIC is genuinely clever: an iPhone photo in HEIC is roughly half the size of the same shot as a JPG, with no visible quality loss, which is why Apple made it the default. The problem is everywhere else. Upload a HEIC to an older website, attach it in some email clients, or open it on a Windows machine and you often get an error or a file that simply will not display. Converting to JPG trades a bit of file size for a format that every device, browser and app made in the last 25 years can open without a second thought.

Two ways to deal with it

Convert now, or stop it at the source

1

Convert the photos you have

Drop them here, set quality to about 90, and download a JPG of each or a zip of the lot.

2

Switch the camera going forward

On the iPhone: Settings, Camera, Formats, Most Compatible. New photos save straight to JPG.

3

Keep your location private

Conversion drops the GPS and camera tags, so the JPG you share does not quietly carry where it was taken.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Since iOS 11 the iPhone saves photos as HEIC by default because it is about half the size of a JPG at the same quality. The catch is that plenty of websites, email clients and Windows apps still cannot open HEIC, which is why you end up needing to convert.

Yes. Drop in as many .heic files as you like, set the quality once, and convert them together. Download All gives you a single zip of every JPG.

Yes. HEIF is the same container, so .heif files convert exactly the same way.

No. The location and camera details from the HEIC are dropped during conversion, so the JPG comes out clean, which is usually what you want before sharing.

Yes. Settings, then Camera, then Formats, then Most Compatible switches the camera to JPG. Use this tool for the photos you have already taken.

No. Conversion runs in your browser with the heic2any library. The files never reach a server.
