HEIC to JPG

About HEIC to JPG

Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos in HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) format by default. It keeps excellent quality at roughly half the size of JPG, but many places still cannot open it: older Windows PCs, some Android apps, most Indian government and exam portals, and plenty of website upload forms. Converting to JPG fixes that.

This converter decodes the HEIC file inside your browser and re-encodes it as a standard JPG at the quality you choose. At 90% the difference from the original is practically invisible. Lower values give smaller files, which helps when a site has an upload limit; for strict limits like 50 KB, convert here first and then use Photo Resize to KB.

You can convert several photos in one go. Each result shows its new size and has its own download button, plus a Download all button that saves them one after another. Live Photos and bursts that contain several images convert to their main still frame.

If you want to avoid HEIC entirely, you can change the iPhone setting under Settings, Camera, Formats, and choose Most Compatible. New photos will then be saved as JPG, though they will take more storage space.

Decoding is done by the open-source heic2any library in your browser. The first conversion may take a few seconds while the decoder loads. Your photos are never uploaded, so personal and family pictures stay private.
