HEIC to JPG converter

Turn iPhone HEIC photos into JPGs that open everywhere: Windows, WhatsApp Web, government forms and older apps.

Converting takes a few seconds per photo, because the HEIC decoder runs on your device.

Common questions

What is a HEIC file?

HEIC is the format iPhones and iPads use for photos since iOS 11. It saves space, but many websites, Windows apps and forms do not accept it.

How do I stop my iPhone saving photos as HEIC?

Go to Settings, then Camera, then Formats, and pick Most Compatible. New photos are then saved as JPG. Photos you already took stay HEIC.

Is any quality lost?

JPG at 90% looks the same as the original to the eye. Choose PNG if you need a lossless copy, but expect much larger files.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in your browser, so your photos stay on your device.
