HEIC to JPG

How to convert HEIC to JPG

1. Drop your .heic photos into the box, or click to pick them. You can pick a bunch at once.
2. Leave the format on JPG. Adjust quality if you want smaller files (88% is a good default).
3. Each file converts in your browser and gets its own Download button. Use Download all to grab the lot.

The conversion happens on your device. There is no server in the middle, so your photos are never uploaded. That is why the page keeps working if you lose connection after it has loaded.

Frequently asked questions

What is a HEIC file?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the format iPhones and iPads use by default for photos since iOS 11. It stores the same picture as a JPEG at roughly half the size, using the HEIF standard. The catch: plenty of software still cannot open it.

Why won't my iPhone photos open on Windows or Android?

Windows 10 and 11 can display HEIC only after you install the HEIF Image Extensions (a paid codec on some machines), and most Android galleries and older apps ignore it entirely. Converting to JPG makes the file work everywhere: email, Word, Photoshop, websites, print shops, and any phone.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. The decoding and the JPG encoding both run in JavaScript on your device. Open your browser's network tab and you will see no request carrying your picture. That matters for personal photos, client work, and anything you would rather not hand to a random website.

Does converting HEIC to JPG lose quality?

JPG is lossy, so there is a small, usually invisible drop. At 88% quality most people cannot tell it from the original at normal viewing size, and the file is still much smaller than a PNG. If you want zero loss, choose PNG output instead; if you want the smallest file that still looks right, choose WebP.

Why is the JPG bigger than my HEIC file?

HEIC compresses better than JPG, so the converted file is usually larger (a 2 MB HEIC can land near 4 MB as a JPG). That is normal, and it is the trade you make for a file everything can open. If size matters, pick WebP output or slide the quality down to about 75%; WebP stays compatible with every current browser and is typically smaller than the original HEIC.

Can I convert many photos at once?

Yes. Select or drop the whole batch. They convert in order, each with its own result and download button, plus one button for everything.

Is there a watermark or a file limit?

No watermark, no signup, no daily limit. It is a small free tool. The only limit is your own device's memory, since the work happens there.

Does it keep the date, location, and camera data?

No, and that is usually a plus. Re-encoding drops the EXIF block, which can carry GPS coordinates, the device model, and timestamps. The JPG you get is a clean picture without that hidden data.

Can I convert HEIC on a Mac or a phone?

Yes. This page runs in any current browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS. On a phone, tap the box and pick your photos from the library.
