Convert HEIC to JPG
Your iPhone saves photos as HEIC, but the rest of the world still expects JPG — upload forms, Windows apps, older software, and most websites won't open HEIC files. Converting to JPG makes your photos universally usable, and because the conversion runs entirely in your browser, your photos are never uploaded anywhere.

How to convert HEIC to JPG
- Open the converter and add your HEIC files — drag & drop, paste from the clipboard, or pick a whole folder.
- Choose JPG as the output format in the options panel and press Apply. (HEIC converts to JPG by default, so this step is optional.)
- Fine-tune quality or resize if you need to — files re-encode instantly.
- Download results individually, as a ZIP, or combined into a PDF.
About the formats
HEIC
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container, also seen as HEIF) is the format iPhones and iPads use for photos by default. It stores excellent quality at roughly half the size of JPEG, but support outside the Apple ecosystem is poor — many Windows apps, websites, and upload forms simply reject it.
JPG
JPEG is the most universally supported image format in existence — every browser, app, device, and upload form accepts it. It uses lossy compression tuned for photographs. This converter encodes JPEG with MozJPEG, which squeezes out noticeably smaller files than standard encoders at the same visual quality.
Frequently asked questions
Are my HEIC files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly codecs — your files never leave your device. After the first visit the converter even works offline.
Can I convert many files at once?
Yes — add as many files (or whole folders) as you like, convert them in one batch, and download everything as a single ZIP. There are no file-count or size limits.
Will I lose quality converting HEIC to JPG?
You stay in control: JPG quality is adjustable in the options panel, and the defaults are tuned to be visually indistinguishable for typical images. You can re-convert with different settings instantly.
Why won't my iPhone photos open on Windows or upload to websites?
iPhones save photos in HEIC format by default, which Windows and many websites don't support without extra codecs. Converting HEIC to JPG solves this — JPG opens everywhere. You can also stop your iPhone from using HEIC under Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible.
