HEIC to JPG Converter

About the HEIC to JPG Converter

HEIC is the photo format iPhones and iPads have used by default since 2017. It saves space, but Windows, most websites, older editors, and many Android apps cannot open it — which is why “HEIC won't open” is one of the most common photo headaches there is. This converter fixes it: drop your HEIC files and get standard JPG, PNG, or WebP images you can open, upload, and share anywhere.

Everything happens on your device. Your photos are never uploaded, never queued on a server, and never logged. The HEIC decoder loads once (about 1.3 MB) and then runs locally, so it keeps working offline once cached and stays private by construction — which matters, because the photos you convert are personal.

What you can do

• Convert HEIC → JPG, PNG, or WebP (and AVIF where your browser supports it). It converts the other way too — JPG, PNG, and WebP can be converted between each other.
• Batch convert a whole camera roll at once and download everything as a single ZIP, or grab files one at a time.
• Resize on the way out by setting a maximum width or height — handy for email, web uploads, or staying under a size limit.
• Tune quality for JPG, WebP, and AVIF to balance sharpness against file size.
• Strip metadata automatically — re-encoding removes EXIF (including GPS location) from every output.

Common uses

• Make iPhone photos open on a Windows PC without installing a paid codec.
• Get past a website or form that rejects HEIC uploads.
• Email pictures to someone whose device can't read HEIC.
• Shrink and convert a batch of photos for a web gallery or a document.

Tips

• The first conversion loads the ~1.3 MB decoder; every file after that is quick because it's cached by your browser.
• Choose JPG for the widest compatibility, WebP or AVIF for smaller files at the same quality, and PNG when you need lossless output.
• Change the format, quality, or size after adding files and every image re-converts instantly — the originals are decoded once and kept ready.
• Need to compress further or crop afterward? Run the results through the Image Compressor or Image Cropper.

No account, no watermark, and no upload — just drop, convert, and download.

Common questions

How do I convert HEIC photos to JPG for free?

Drop the HEIC files in, choose JPG (or PNG or WebP), and download, individually or as one ZIP for batches. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing uploads and conversion starts instantly.

Why won't my iPhone photos open on Windows or websites?

iPhones save photos in HEIC, a space-efficient format that much of the world's software still refuses to read. Converting to JPG makes the photo universally openable, which is usually all the situation requires.

Can I convert a whole batch of HEIC files at once?

Yes. Drop in the whole set, convert in one pass, and download everything in a single ZIP, resized on the way through if you asked for it.

Does converting HEIC to JPG lose quality?

Slightly in theory (JPG re-encodes the image), invisibly in practice at the quality level used. You can also choose PNG for lossless output at larger file sizes.

Can I remove the location data while converting?

Yes. An option strips EXIF metadata (including GPS coordinates) during conversion, so the photos you share do not carry where they were taken.
