HEIC to JPG
Turn iPhone HEIC photos into JPGs that everything can open — privately, on your own device.
Your image is processed entirely in your browser — it is never uploaded to a server.
About this tool
Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos as HEIC by default — efficient, but Windows, older software and many websites still can't open the files. This converter decodes them right in your browser (using the libheif decoder) and hands you standard JPGs.
The privacy angle matters here more than anywhere: the popular HEIC converter websites upload your personal photos to their servers. This one never does — decoding happens on your device, so it also works offline once the page has loaded. Decoding is heavier than a normal image conversion, so give each photo a few seconds.
How to use it
- Select one or more HEIC photos.
- Press Convert to JPG and save the downloads.
Frequently asked questions
Why can't Windows open my iPhone photos?
They are HEIC files. Windows needs a paid/free codec extension from the Microsoft Store to view them natively — converting to JPG sidesteps the problem everywhere.
Does conversion lose quality?
HEIC and JPG are both lossy. The JPG is written at 92% quality — visually identical for normal photos, though the file will usually be larger than the HEIC.
Are my photos uploaded?
Never. Decoding and encoding happen entirely on your device.
