Free HEIC to JPG Converter
Convert iPhone HEIC photos to universally compatible JPG format. Upload multiple HEIC or HEIF files at once, adjust quality, and download converted images individually or all at once. All processing happens in your browser.
What Is HEIC?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format on iPhones and iPads running iOS 11 and later. It uses the HEVC codec to produce smaller files than JPEG while maintaining similar or better quality.
While HEIC is great for saving storage space on Apple devices, it is not universally supported. Windows, many web platforms, and older software may not open HEIC files. Converting to JPG ensures your photos work everywhere.
How It Works
- Upload HEIC files. Select one or more HEIC/HEIF files from your device. You can drag and drop or click to browse.
- Adjust quality. Use the quality slider to balance file size and image quality. 92% is recommended for most uses.
- Convert and download. Click convert to process all files. Download individually or all at once.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why are my iPhone photos in HEIC format?
- Apple uses HEIC as the default format because it produces files roughly 50% smaller than JPEG at the same quality. You can change this in Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible to take future photos as JPEG.
- Does converting to JPG lose quality?
- JPEG is a lossy format, so there is some quality reduction. However, at 92% quality (the default), the difference is virtually imperceptible. You can adjust the quality slider to find your preferred balance.
- Can I convert multiple files at once?
- Yes. Select multiple HEIC files or drag and drop a batch. All files are converted with the same quality setting and you can download them individually or all at once.
- Are my images uploaded to a server?
- No. The HEIC decoding library runs entirely in your browser. Your photos never leave your device and are never stored on any server.
