How do I convert HEIC to JPG on iPhone?

Open this website in Safari on your iPhone, tap Choose Files, select your HEIC photos from your Camera Roll, tap Convert, then tap Download. The JPG file saves directly to your Files app. Alternatively, go to Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible to shoot in JPG going forward.

Is HEIC to JPG conversion lossless?

The conversion is not strictly lossless because JPG is a lossy format. However, our converter uses a 92% quality setting which produces JPG files visually indistinguishable from the original. HEIC files are themselves compressed, so the difference in perceived quality is negligible.

Can I convert multiple HEIC files at once?

Yes. Click Choose Files and select as many HEIC photos as you want, or drag and drop multiple files at once. Click Convert, and when all conversions are done, click Download All to save all JPG files in one click.

What is the difference between HEIC and JPG?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) uses Apple's HEIF format which compresses photos to about half the size of JPG at the same quality. However, JPG is universally supported by all devices, websites, apps, and operating systems, while HEIC is limited mainly to Apple devices and modern browsers.

How do I stop my iPhone from taking HEIC photos?

Go to Settings → Camera → Formats and select Most Compatible. Your iPhone will now save photos as JPG instead of HEIC. Note: this slightly increases file size. Alternatively, keep shooting in HEIC (smaller files) and use this converter when you need to share JPG files.

HEIC to JPG — Common Questions

Windows does not support HEIC by default. To open HEIC on Windows 10/11, install the HEVC Video Extensions from the Microsoft Store (paid), or simply use this free converter to turn your HEIC files into universally compatible JPG.

How do I convert HEIC to JPG on my iPhone?

Open this website in Safari on your iPhone → tap Choose HEIC Files → select photos from your Camera Roll → tap Convert → tap Download. The JPG saves to your Files app. You can also go to Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible to shoot JPG directly.

Will converting HEIC to JPG reduce the photo quality?

Our converter uses a 92% JPG quality setting — the result is visually identical to the original. HEIC files are already compressed, so converting to high-quality JPG produces no noticeable difference in sharpness or color.

Can I batch convert multiple HEIC files?

Yes. Select as many HEIC files as you want (or drag and drop a folder of photos), click Convert, and then use the Download All button to save all JPGs at once. There is no limit on the number of files.

What is the difference between HEIC and HEIF?

HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format) is the open standard. HEIC is Apple's implementation using the HEVC codec. They are essentially the same thing — this converter handles both .heic and .heif files.

How do I stop my iPhone from saving photos as HEIC?

Go to Settings → Camera → Formats and tap Most Compatible. Your iPhone will shoot JPG instead of HEIC going forward. The trade-off is slightly larger file sizes. Keeping HEIC for storage and converting when needed (using this tool) is often the best of both worlds.

Does this work on Android?
