What is the HEIC to JPG Converter (iPhone Photos)?
You copied photos from your iPhone to your computer, and they wouldn't open because they're "HEIC" files โ a common frustration. HEIC (HEIF) is the high-efficiency format Apple uses to save storage space, but Windows, Android, and many older programs and websites don't support it. This tool converts those HEIC photos into JPG that opens anywhere. Beyond HEIC, it also converts between JPG, PNG, and WebP. Drop in several files at once and they're converted in order, ready to download individually or all together. JPG and WebP let you adjust quality (file size), and PNG or WebP preserve transparent backgrounds. Most importantly, your photos are never uploaded. Every conversion happens entirely in your browser, so even personal or confidential images are handled safely without ever touching the internet. No installation or signup required.
How to use
- Drop HEIC or image files onto the gray area, or click to choose them. Multiple files are supported.
- iPhone HEIC photos are detected and converted automatically. The first conversion may take a few seconds.
- Pick the output format (JPG, PNG, or WebP) and quality to suit your needs.
- Save files one by one with the "Save" button, or grab them all with "Save all".
HEIC to JPG Converter (iPhone Photos) guide
How this tool is used in real work, and what to watch out for.
What HEIC is, and why it won't open on your computer
HEIC (HEIF) is the photo format Apple has used by default since iOS 11. It stores the same quality at about half the size of a JPG, saving space on your iPhone โ but compatibility is the catch. Windows' default photo viewer, Android, older editors, and many upload forms don't support HEIC, so it becomes a file you "can't open".
That's why you need to convert to JPG when attaching a photo to email, uploading to a government or shopping site, or sending it to print. That conversion is exactly what this tool does.
| Format | Traits | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| JPG | Best compatibility ยท small ยท no transparency | Attachments, uploads, printing โ most cases |
| PNG | Lossless ยท transparency ยท larger | Logos or transparent backgrounds |
| WebP | Smallest size ยท modern format | Putting images on a website |
How and where the conversion happens
This tool decodes the HEIC into an image in your browser, then redraws it on a canvas and encodes it to your chosen format. All of this happens on your device, and your photos are never sent to a server.
The first HEIC conversion may take a few seconds while the decoder loads. After that it's fast, and once loaded it even works with your internet disconnected.
- You can drop up to 20 images at once.
- Resolution is kept as-is โ this tool only changes the format. To make images smaller, use an image resize tool.
- JPG and WebP have a quality slider to control file size; PNG is lossless so it has no quality setting.
Frequently asked questions
What is HEIC and why won't it open?
HEIC (HEIF) is the image format iPhones use to store photos at a smaller size. It's efficient, but Windows' default viewer, Android, and some websites and programs don't support it, so the file won't open. Converting to JPG fixes that everywhere.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your photos are never sent to or stored on a server, and it works offline once the converter has loaded.
Which output format should I choose?
Use JPG for attachments, printing, and maximum compatibility; PNG if you need a transparent background; WebP for the smallest file size. JPG is the safest choice for most cases.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes. You can drop up to 20 images at a time and download all the converted files together with "Save all".
