This tool allows you to convert your HEIC (High Efficiency Image Format) files, commonly used by Apple iPhones and other modern devices, into the universally compatible JPG (JPEG) format. HEIC files offer excellent image quality at significantly smaller file sizes compared to older formats. However, their adoption is not yet universal, leading to compatibility issues on Windows, older Android devices, and many web platforms. Our HEIC to JPG converter bridges this gap, allowing you to easily share and use your images everywhere, all processed securely within your browser.
Converting HEIC to JPG is primarily a solution for compatibility, allowing you to use your efficiently stored HEIC images on platforms and devices that only support the more traditional JPG format.
Converting HEIC images to JPG format offers several practical advantages:
This tool makes it simple to bridge the compatibility gap, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of HEIC's efficient storage on your Apple devices while still being able to use your images in the universally accepted JPG format when needed.
iPhone Users: You can also change your camera settings to capture JPG instead of HEIC by going to Settings > Camera > Formats and selecting "Most Compatible" instead of "High Efficiency."
Mac Users: Preview app can export HEIC files to JPG format, or you can use the built-in Image Capture application.
Windows Users: Windows 10/11 can view HEIC files with the HEIF Image Extensions from the Microsoft Store, but conversion still typically requires third-party tools.
Solution: Windows doesn't natively support HEIC. Use our converter to change them to JPG format, which Windows supports universally. No software installation needed.
Solution: Many websites only accept JPG, PNG, or GIF formats. Convert your HEIC images to JPG using our tool before uploading.
Solution: Our converter uses high-quality settings (0.9) to preserve image quality. For smaller files, you can use additional compression tools after conversion.
Solution: HEIC conversion is processing-intensive. For best performance, convert 6-8 files at a time, especially on older devices.
Solution: Some quality loss is normal when converting between lossy formats. Our tool minimizes this by using high-quality JPG settings.

Your privacy is our top priority when converting HEIC to JPG:
This approach makes our converter especially suitable for converting personal photos, family pictures, or sensitive business images that you wouldn't want to upload to unknown servers.
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is a modern image format that provides better compression than JPG while maintaining higher quality. Apple adopted it starting with iOS 11 to save storage space on devices while preserving photo quality.
Yes, our converter supports batch conversion of up to 8 HEIC files simultaneously. Simply select multiple files or drag them all into the upload area.
There is minimal quality loss when converting from HEIC to JPG since both are lossy formats. Our converter uses high-quality settings (90% quality) to minimize any degradation.
Windows doesn't have native HEIC support. While you can install codecs, converting to JPG provides universal compatibility without additional software.
Yes, our HEIC to JPG converter is completely free with no limitations on the number of conversions or file sizes (within reasonable limits).
Yes, our converter handles both HEIC and HEIF file extensions, as they're part of the same High Efficiency Image File format family.
Absolutely! Our converter works on smartphones and tablets with modern browsers. The interface adapts to touch devices for easy file selection.
Conversion speed depends on file size and your device's processing power. Typically, each HEIC file converts to JPG in 2-10 seconds.
