HEIC to JPG Converter (iPhone Photos)

Turn iPhone HEIC photos into universally compatible JPGs — private, in-browser conversion

100% private — files are converted inside your browser and never uploaded to any server.

Why iPhone Photos Won't Open on Windows

Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos in HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) — a format that stores the same quality in about half the space of JPG. The catch: Windows, many Android devices, older software and most upload portals can't open HEIC files without extra codecs. Converting to JPG makes your iPhone photos open everywhere, instantly.

Select one or many HEIC files above — each converts to a high-quality JPG (90% quality) with its own download button. The conversion happens inside your browser: your photos are never uploaded to any server, which matters because camera-roll photos are among the most personal files people own.

Tip: stop iPhone from using HEIC

If you'd rather avoid conversion entirely, go to Settings → Camera → Formats on your iPhone and choose “Most Compatible” — new photos will be saved as JPG directly (at roughly double the file size). For the thousands of HEIC photos you already have, this converter handles them in batches.

Frequently Asked Questions

Apple's default photo format since iOS 11 — it stores the same image quality as JPG in roughly half the file size, but many non-Apple devices and apps can't open it.
Windows needs paid HEVC codecs to display HEIC natively, and many apps skip support entirely. Converting to JPG removes the problem for good.
The conversion uses 90% JPEG quality — visually identical for normal viewing and printing. The JPG file will be larger than the HEIC, since JPG compresses less efficiently.
Yes — conversion runs entirely in your browser using a JavaScript decoder. Your photos are never uploaded, which is exactly what you want for personal camera-roll pictures.
