HEIC to JPG.
iPhone photos, everywhere.
Convert the HEIC files your iPhone produces into JPG that opens anywhere — decoded locally in your browser, nothing uploaded.
How do I convert HEIC to JPG? Add your .heic or .heif file, pick the JPG quality, and download. The HEIC decoder loads once into your browser and runs on your device — the photo itself is never uploaded to a server.
HEIC to JPG converter
The decoder (~1.3 MB) downloads once per visit and everything after that happens locally. Burst photos and Live Photos contain multiple images — this tool converts the primary one.
How to convert HEIC to JPG
- Add your HEIC or HEIF file — drag it in or browse; the decoder loads once, then works offline.
- Set the JPG quality — 85% suits most photos; lower it if a portal caps the file size.
- Download the JPG — preview first, then save. Your original HEIC stays untouched.
Why HEIC files cause trouble
- Windows photo apps and older editors often cannot open HEIC — the HEVC codec inside needs licensing many apps skip
- Upload portals and print shops frequently reject HEIC outright
- Sharing to non-Apple devices is a compatibility gamble
Good to know
HEIC has been the iPhone default since iOS 11 because it compresses better than JPG — so converting will usually increase the file size, and that is normal. If you still need a smaller file for a strict upload form, run the result through the target-size compressor. Related: HEIC to PNG when you need lossless output for editing.
Is my photo uploaded during conversion?
No. The HEIC decoder is downloaded to your browser once and runs locally — the photo itself never leaves your device. You can verify in the browser's Network tab.
Why won't my computer open HEIC files?
HEIC uses the HEVC codec, which many Windows apps and older editors lack licenses or support for. Converting to JPG makes the photo open anywhere.
Does it handle burst photos and Live Photos?
Those files contain several images; this tool converts the primary one. Open the others from your phone if you need them separately.
