What is a HEIC file?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format on iPhone and iPad since iOS 11. It stores images with HEVC compression, so photos take roughly half the space of an equivalent JPG. The catch is compatibility: many Windows apps, older Android phones, websites, and upload forms can't open HEIC files. Converting an iPhone photo to JPG makes it open everywhere.

Convert HEIC to JPG without uploading

Most online HEIC converters send your photos to a server. This one decodes each HEIC file directly in your browser with a WebAssembly build of libheif, then re-encodes it as JPG or PNG on your device. Your personal photos never leave your computer or phone, and there are no file limits, accounts, or watermarks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert HEIC to JPG?↓

Drop your HEIC photos onto the converter, choose JPG and a quality level, and each file converts automatically. Then click Download on a photo or Download All to save them as .jpg files.

Can I convert HEIC to JPG without uploading my photos?↓

Yes. This converter decodes HEIC files directly in your browser using WebAssembly, so your photos never leave your device and are never uploaded, tracked, or stored.

Why are my iPhone photos saved as HEIC?↓

Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos in HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) by default because it uses about half the storage of JPG at similar quality. Many Windows apps, websites, and older devices can't open HEIC, which is why converting an iPhone photo to JPG is often necessary.

Does converting HEIC to JPG reduce quality?↓

JPG is a lossy format, so a tiny amount of detail is lost, but at the default 90% quality the difference is not visible in normal viewing. If you need a lossless copy, choose PNG output instead — the file will be larger.

Can I convert multiple HEIC files at once?↓

Yes. Add as many HEIC or HEIF photos as you like. They are converted one after another with progress shown for each file, and Download All saves every converted image.

What happens with HEIC files that contain several images?↓

Some HEIC files, such as burst shots, store more than one image. The converter exports the first (primary) image in the file as a JPG or PNG.
