Why convert HEIC to JPG?

HEIC is Apple's default photo format on iPhones running iOS 11+. While HEIC files are half the size of JPEGs at the same quality, they're not supported by Windows, most websites, or older applications. Converting to JPG gives you a universally compatible photo that works everywhere.

Common use cases

  • Uploading iPhone photos to websites that don't accept HEIC
  • Sharing photos with Windows users
  • Preparing images for email attachments
  • Using iPhone photos in older photo editors

How to convert HEIC to JPG

  1. Click "Choose a .heic file" or drag and drop your HEIC file into the upload area.
  2. Select your preferred quality level — high quality keeps the best fidelity, smaller file prioritizes file size.
  3. Your file uploads directly to our secure servers and conversion starts automatically.
  4. Once finished, click "Download" to save your converted JPG file.

Tips for HEIC to JPG conversion

  • High quality (95%) preserves virtually all detail from the original HEIC. You won't notice a difference.
  • HEIC supports features like depth maps and Live Photo data — these are lost in the conversion since JPG doesn't support them.
  • Batch upload is supported — drop all your HEIC photos at once to convert them in one go.

About HEIC and JPG formats

.HEIC format

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format on iOS. It provides roughly 50% better compression than JPEG while maintaining the same quality.

.JPG format

JPEG is the most common image format for photographs. It uses lossy compression to achieve small file sizes. Ideal for photos but not for graphics with sharp lines or text.

Frequently asked questions

Why can't I open HEIC files on Windows?

Windows doesn't natively support HEIC without installing the HEIF Image Extensions from the Microsoft Store (which costs $0.99). Converting to JPG is the free, instant alternative.

Is HEIC better than JPG?

HEIC produces files roughly 50% smaller than JPG at equivalent quality, and supports features like transparency and 16-bit color. However, JPG has universal compatibility — every device, browser, and application supports it.

Will my photo look different after conversion?

At High quality, the converted JPG is visually identical to the HEIC original. There's a tiny amount of quality loss (HEIC → JPG is lossy-to-lossy), but it's imperceptible in normal viewing.
