What is HEIC?
HEIC is the default photo format on iPhones since iOS 11. It stores the same quality in about half the size of JPG, but Windows out of the box and many web services cannot open it, so sharing or submitting photos often requires converting to JPG.
Setting the iPhone camera to "Most Compatible" captures JPG from then on, but does nothing for photos already taken. This tool converts them in any browser on Windows or Android, no Mac required.
Frequently asked questions
Are my photos sent to a server?
No. HEIC decoding uses libheif loaded into your browser as WebAssembly, and the JPG is written on your device.
Is quality lost?
JPG is lossy, so there is a slight loss, but at the default quality of 80 it is not visible. For printing, use quality 90–95.
What about Live Photos and bursts?
Only the still image is converted. The video part of a Live Photo is a separate .mov file and is not included.
My file is .jpg but will not open — can it be converted?
Yes. Files renamed to .jpg by AirDrop and similar are detected as HEIC from their contents. Drop them onto the "Convert image format" tool.
Help us improve the service
If a conversion fails, sending us the circumstances helps us track down the cause. Knowing which devices and formats fail most often, and how long processing takes, lets us revise the supported formats and fix the bugs behind them. If you don't mind, leaving this on is a real help.
What is sent
The tool you used and the settings you chose (output format, quality, etc.), your device specs (GPU, memory, core count), the input format with a rough size, how many files succeeded or failed and how long it took, and the error type and details when something fails.
What is never sent
The files themselves, file names, text, subtitles or prompts you add to a video, and IP addresses. The data goes only to this site's own server, never to a third-party service.
