About the HEIC to JPG Converter
The HEIC to JPG Converter turns High Efficiency Image Container (HEIC) images into JPEG (JPG) files right inside your web browser. Converting iPhone HEIC photos to JPG lets you open, edit and upload them on Windows, Android and any website.
HEIC (HEIF) is the default photo format on iPhones and iPads since iOS 11. It stores high-quality photos in about half the size of JPG, but Windows, Android apps, websites and many online forms cannot open HEIC files without conversion.
JPG (or JPEG) is the most widely used photo format in the world. It uses lossy compression to keep photographs small, which makes it perfect for cameras, websites and messaging, but it cannot store transparent areas and loses a little quality every time it is re-saved.
Both formats are lossy. Keep the quality slider around 85–92% to avoid visible artifacts while keeping files small. HEIC images have no transparency, so the result looks exactly like the original. You can convert dozens of images at once, optionally limit the maximum width to shrink large photos, and download everything as a single ZIP file. Because the conversion runs locally on your device, your pictures are never uploaded to a server.
How to use the HEIC to JPG Converter
- Drop your HEIC files into the upload area, click to browse, or paste an image.
- Adjust the quality, background color or maximum width if needed.
- Wait a moment while each image is converted to JPG on your device.
- Download files individually or click Download all (ZIP).
