iPhone photos are saved as HEIC, which many programs and websites cannot open. Turn them into ordinary JPG files here, without uploading anything.

    Everything you enter is processed in your browser and is never sent to a server.

    How to use

    1. Drop your .heic photos onto the box, or choose them. You can add up to 50 at once, and photos from the iPhone Files app or a cable import both work.
    2. The quality is set to 90, which looks the same as the original on a screen. Lower it for smaller files. You can also shrink the size, for example to a width of 2000 pixels.
    3. Download each JPG, or press Download all to get a ZIP.

    Examples

    IMG_0001.HEIC, converted to JPG
    → IMG_0001.jpg
    The name stays, only the ending changes.
    A 4032×3024 photo, width set to 2000
    → 2000×1500
    Setting only the width keeps the shape of the photo.
    Three photos, then Download all
    → images.zip with three .jpg files

    How it works

    This page is the image converter with HEIC to JPG already chosen. Photos are decoded by the open-source libheif library, compiled to WebAssembly, and the JPG is written by MozJPEG, a JPG encoder that makes smaller files than a browser’s own at the same quality. libheif is licensed under the LGPL-3.0, and its source is linked in the sources and on the open-source page.

    The tool is tested for the file naming and for the decoder loading and rejecting data that is not a HEIC file. Decoding real photos depends on the browser, so check the first result against the original.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is a HEIC file?
    HEIC is the picture format iPhones have used by default since iOS 11. It keeps photos at about half the size of a JPG of similar quality. The catch is support: many Windows and Android programs, web forms and printing services cannot open it.
    Can I make my iPhone save JPG in the first place?
    Yes. In Settings, Camera, Formats, choose Most Compatible. New photos are then saved as JPG. Photos you took earlier stay HEIC, so convert those with this tool.
    Are my photos uploaded?
    No. The photos are decoded and saved in your browser. This matters for personal pictures, which you may not want on someone else's server.
    Will the JPG keep the date and location?
    No. The picture is decoded and saved again without its hidden camera data, so the date, the camera model and the GPS location are not in the JPG. That protects your privacy when you share it, but the date will no longer show in a photo library.
    What about Live Photos?
    Only the still picture is converted. The short video of a Live Photo is a separate file and is not included.
    Why does the first photo take longer?
    The first HEIC photo makes your browser download the decoder, about 2 MB. It is kept for the rest of the visit, so the next photos are faster. A large photo takes a few seconds.
    Version history
    • 1.0.3 — Puts the format and quality options and the size options on one line on a wide screen, instead of two lines with empty space beside them.
    • 1.0.2 — Makes the search title and description state the supported task, key formats and privacy benefit more clearly.
    • 1.0.1 — Reports conversion completion and failure to connected workflows, so batch runs wait for the full result and ignore cancelled or superseded work.
    • 1.0.0 — First release.
