HEIC to JPG Converter - Convert HEIC to JPG Online Free

How to convert HEIC to JPG

Add your HEIC files. Drop up to 50 HEIC photos into the box, or browse for them. They are decoded on your device and never uploaded.
Set the JPG quality. Quality 90 looks like the original photo. The JPG size shown is measured from the real file, not guessed.
Adjust if you like. Resize, rename, or turn on Keep EXIF to keep the date and location. Every option starts closed and shows its value.
Convert and download. Press Convert to JPG. One or two files download directly, more than two come as a ZIP.

Tired of converting? Set your iPhone to Settings - Camera - Formats - Most Compatible and it saves JPG from now on.

Why convert HEIC to JPG?

iPhones and iPads save every photo as HEIC by default.

JPG is the one photo format every device, website, printer and app understands.

HEIC vs JPG

	HEIC	JPG
Compression	HEVC - very efficient	JPEG (1992)
Typical size	About half of a JPG	Bigger at the same quality
Transparency	Yes	No
Opens on Windows	Only with paid HEVC extension	Always
Websites and email	Often rejected	Accepted everywhere

Going the other way? JPG to HEIC does that. Test files are in the HEIC sample files.

Tips

Quality 85-92 is the sweet spot for photos - smaller files, no visible loss.
Sharing on WhatsApp or email? Use the Email preset - 1280 px wide is plenty on a phone.
Printing? Keep the original size and quality 95.

Date, camera, location and colour

Removed by default. The JPG has no camera details, date or GPS location unless you turn on Keep EXIF.
Location warning. When a photo has GPS coordinates, the page tells you before you share it.
Colour. Phone photos are often in Display P3. Keep profile saves that wider colour; the default converts to standard sRGB that looks the same everywhere.
Upright. Photos are turned the right way up, and the orientation tag is reset so no app turns them twice.

Why HEIC will not open on Windows

Windows needs two extensions from the Microsoft Store to show HEIC: HEIF Image Extensions and HEVC Video Extensions, and the HEVC one is paid.

Many websites, upload forms and older programs cannot read HEIC at all.

Converting to JPG once is usually easier - and with Keep EXIF on, the date and place stay with the photo.

Frequently Asked Questions

Drop your HEIC photos into the box, check the settings and press Convert to JPG.

One file downloads directly, more than two come as a ZIP.

No. Your browser decodes the HEIC and writes the JPG on your device, so private photos stay private.

Windows needs the HEIF and the paid HEVC extensions from the Microsoft Store, and many websites and programs do not read HEIC at all. Converting to JPG fixes that.

A tiny bit, because JPG is lossy too - at quality 90 you will not see it. Pick 95-100 for printing, or HEIC to PNG for a lossless copy.

A JPG is usually 1.5-2 times bigger than the HEIC, because HEIC compresses better. That is normal.

Only if you turn on Keep EXIF - by default they are removed. If the photo has a GPS location, the page warns you before you share it.

Bursts and collections show every picture under the preview. The first one is ticked; tick any others and each becomes its own JPG.

Yes. Open this page in Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android, pick the photos from your gallery and save the JPG to your phone - nothing is uploaded.
