Common uses

  • Opening an iPhone photo on a device or app that doesn't support HEIC
  • Sharing a photo with someone whose software can't open HEIC files
  • Uploading a photo to a site or form that only accepts JPG

Supported formats and limitations

Accepts HEIC or HEIF, up to one file at a time.

  • HEIC decoding is genuinely heavy client-side work — very large photos or a slower device can take noticeably longer than other conversions on this site, and a handful of older or unusual browser configurations may not support it at all. A clear error is shown rather than a silent failure if that happens.
  • Only the image is converted — HEIC-specific extras some phones store (like Live Photo motion data or Portrait mode depth maps) aren't carried over, since JPG has no equivalent.
  • One file at a time, up to 30 MB.

Frequently asked questions

iPhones save photos as HEIC by default, a format many non-Apple apps and older software don't recognize. Converting to JPG makes the photo openable essentially everywhere.

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser using a WebAssembly-based decoder — your photo is never sent to a server.

Decoding HEIC is more computationally demanding than reading a JPG or PNG. Your device does all of that work locally rather than a server doing it, which is what keeps the photo private, at the cost of some speed.

A small number of older or unusual browser setups don't support the WebAssembly decoding this conversion needs. You'll see a clear error rather than a broken result — try a recent version of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari instead.

Yes — HEIF is the broader container format HEIC is part of, and both are accepted.

Yes, 30 MB — a bit higher than this site's other image tools, since HEIC photos are sometimes larger.
