HEIC → JPG: iPhone photo to universal JPG
HEIC is iPhone's efficient format but not universal. We decode via the browser where supported and re-encode as JPG, preserving colors and flattening to a standard 8-bit image. Live Photos, depth data, and HDR gain maps are not carried the still image is the output.
Quality and color notes
HEIC often looks better at the same bytes than JPG; expect the JPG at quality 85–90 to be larger for similar crispness. Wide-gamut P3 may map slightly when re-encoded; check skin tones if color-critical.
When to keep HEIC
If your pipeline is Apple-only, HEIC saves space. For sharing, uploading, or printing broadly, convert to JPG it's the lingua franca.

What is this tool?
A HEIC to JPG converter changes iPhone photos from HEIC to JPG. HEIC looks great and saves space on iPhone, but Windows, web, and email often cannot open it. JPG works everywhere. You need this when an iPhone photo will not upload to a form or share to a friend’s computer. Our tool decodes HEIC in your browser and saves as JPG locally, so private photos stay private.
How it works
We use your browser’s FileReader and Canvas APIs. The file is read into memory, decoded to pixels, and then re-encoded to the target format. For lossy formats we apply quality, for lossless we keep all pixels. The preview and size are computed from the same bytes you will download, so what you see is what you get. No upload happens the bytes live only in your tab until you close it, which keeps it private and fast even on slow internet.

- 2Pick settings if shown (quality or size) and watch preview.
- 3Check the estimated size and look for blurry text.
