HEIC Photo Converter

iPhones save photos as HEIC, which many computers, websites and apps still cannot open. Convert a whole batch to JPG or PNG and download them together.

Using the HEIC Photo Converter

1

Drop HEIC files

Select as many .heic or .heif photos as you like.

2

Pick JPG or PNG

JPG for photos you share, PNG when you need lossless images.

3

Download

Save photos one by one or get them all at once in a ZIP file.

Why convert HEIC?

Windows

Older Windows versions need extra codecs to open HEIC.

Websites

Many upload forms accept only JPG or PNG.

Printing

Photo labs and printers usually expect JPG.

Sharing

JPG opens on every phone, tablet and computer.

HEIC Photo Converter Questions & Answers

Can I stop my iPhone from saving HEIC?
Yes. In Settings, Camera, Formats, choose Most Compatible. New photos will then be JPG, but they take more space.
Is quality lost?
JPG at high quality looks the same as the original. Choose PNG if you need a lossless copy.
Is there a limit on the number of photos?
No fixed limit. Large batches simply take a little longer.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Conversion happens on your device, so personal pictures stay private.

What HEIC Is and When to Convert It

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) stores photos at roughly half the size of JPG with similar quality. That is great for phone storage, but compatibility outside Apple devices is still patchy. A HEIC converter bridges the gap.

When you will notice the problem

  • Photos copied from an iPhone to a PC will not open.
  • A website rejects your upload.
  • A colleague on Android cannot view the pictures you sent.

After converting

Photos may still contain your location. Remove it with the EXIF & GPS Remover before posting publicly. To shrink them further, use the Image Format Converter; to fit a post size, the Social Image Resizer.
