Convert HEIC to JPG

HEIC and JPG are both lossy, so converting compresses the file again and loses a little more detail.

Drop or paste HEIC files here

They open in the converter with JPG selected.

What changes

Both formats are lossy. Converting decodes the file and compresses it again, so it loses a little more detail on top of what the original had already lost: the result is slightly worse than the file you started with.

The file gets larger: JPG needs more space for the same content.

Your browser may not be able to open HEIC files, but the converter reads the file itself, so it can still convert it.

When it’s worth it

Choose JPG for: Photos and images for sharing. Small files that open on any device.

Stay with HEIC for: iPhone photos and Apple libraries.

How to convert HEIC to JPG

  2. The converter opens with the files loaded and JPG selected.
  3. Press Convert, then save each file or all of them as a ZIP.

Questions

Does converting HEIC to JPG lose quality?

A little. Both formats are lossy, so the file is compressed again and loses a bit more detail.

What is the JPG format?

The standard photographic image format, standardized as ISO/IEC 10918-1 in 1992 with a lossy DCT transform and no transparency. Quality is set from 0 to 100, and saving the same file again strips away a little more detail each time.

What is the HEIC format?

HEVC-coded images inside a HEIF container, the default photo format on iPhone and iPad since iOS 11 in 2017. It carries HDR, wide color and depth information, but Windows and older software can’t open it without an extra codec.

Are the files uploaded?

No. The file is opened in this tab, converted here and saved from here. There’s no account and no watermark.

How many files can be converted at once?

Up to 200 per batch and about 2 GB per file, within the memory this device has available.
