HEIC to JPG

Convert Apple HEIC/HEIF photos (from iPhone) to JPG in your browser.

Processed locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

iPhones save photos as HEIC to keep them small, but the moment you move them to a Windows PC, upload them to an older site, or share them with someone on a different device, they often refuse to open. HEIC to JPG converts Apple's format into the universally supported JPG, right in your browser.

How to heic to jpg

  1. 1. Add your HEIC/HEIF photo from your iPhone.
  2. 2. It's decoded and converted to a standard JPG.
  3. 3. Download the JPG that opens anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Why won't my iPhone photos open elsewhere?

They're saved as HEIC, a modern Apple format many devices and apps still don't support. JPG works virtually everywhere.

Will I lose photo quality?

The JPG is high quality and visually matches the original for everyday use. JPG is lossy, so it's not pixel-identical, but the difference is negligible.

Are my photos uploaded?

No — the HEIC is decoded and converted entirely in your browser.
