About this tool

Convert HEIC and HEIF images to universally compatible JPG or PNG. iPhones and iPads save photos in HEIC format by default, which many programs and websites cannot open.

The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the heic2any library. Your photos are never uploaded to any server. Large files may take a few seconds to process.

Frequently asked questions

Why do iPhones use HEIC?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) produces smaller files than JPEG at the same quality, saving storage space on your device.

Is there any quality loss?

Converting to PNG is lossless. Converting to JPEG involves slight compression, but at 90% quality the difference is imperceptible.

How long does the conversion take?

Typically 2–5 seconds per image, depending on file size and your device. The HEIC decoder runs in JavaScript, so it is slower than native apps.
