HEIC keeps iPhone photos small, but Windows, many websites and older apps can't open it. The converter reads the photo in your browser and writes a JPG with the same pixels and colours, using MozJPEG for a lighter file. Drag to compare.

More about HEIC and JPG
HEIC and JPG side by side
| HEIC | JPG | |
|---|---|---|
| File size | Often about half of a JPG | Bigger, but opens everywhere |
| Opens on | iPhone and Mac; Windows needs extra extensions | Every phone, computer, website and printer |
| Colours | Wide colour (Display P3) | The same colours: the profile is kept |
| Best for | Keeping photos on Apple devices | Sharing, uploading, printing, online shops |
JPG holds one still picture: a Live Photo becomes its main frame, and transparency becomes white.
Get fewer HEIC files from your iPhone
- Shoot JPG from now on. Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible.
- Get JPGs when copying to a computer. Settings → Photos → Transfer to Mac or PC → Automatic.
- Keep the originals. HEIC is smaller and holds more colour: keep it in your library and convert copies when you need them.
- Make photos lighter for a website. A 12-megapixel JPG is heavy: resize and compress it before uploading.
Your photos never leave your device
The converter runs in your browser: photos are read and saved as JPG on your computer or phone, and nothing is sent to our server. Location, camera and date details are not copied into the JPG.
Questions about HEIC to JPG
Is it free? Are there limits?
It is free, with no sign-up and no watermark. Convert up to 10 photos at a time, up to 30 MB and 50 megapixels each (24 on a phone).
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser: the photos and the JPGs stay on your device.
Will I lose quality?
The JPG keeps the full size and the colours of the photo. JPG compresses a little: “Best” keeps the most detail, and “High” looks the same for most photos and is lighter.
Why is the JPG bigger than the HEIC?
HEIC packs a photo into about half the space of a JPG. That is the trade-off for a file that opens everywhere; choose “Smaller” for a lighter JPG.
Are the colours kept?
Yes. iPhone photos use wide colour (Display P3); the colour profile is copied into the JPG, so the colours look the same.
Is the date or location kept?
No. Location, camera and date details are not copied, so a shared JPG doesn't reveal where it was taken.
What about Live Photos and portraits?
The JPG is the main still picture. The motion of a Live Photo and the depth data of a portrait don't fit in a JPG.
Can I convert HEIC on Windows or Android?
Yes. This page works in any modern browser on Windows, Mac, Android or iPhone, with nothing to install.
