Turn iPhone and iPad photos into lossless TIFF files for print shops, publishing and archives - for screen use HEIC to PNG is lighter.
Need a PDF instead? HEIC to PDF lays photos out on A4 or Letter pages.
iPhones and iPads save every photo as HEIC by default.
TIFF is the working format of print shops, publishers, photo labs and archives.

Test files are in the HEIC sample files.
Drop your HEIC photos into the box, check the settings and press Convert to TIFF.
One file downloads directly, more than two come as a ZIP.
No. Your browser decodes the HEIC and writes the TIFF 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 TIFF fixes that.
Yes. Turn on Multi-page TIFF and every photo becomes a page of one TIFF, in the order shown.
The TIFF is lossless and much bigger than the HEIC - 10-30 times 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 TIFF.
