Convert HEIC to JPG in your browser
Choose iPhone photos, or WEBP and AVIF images, and download them as JPGs. The conversion runs on your own device, so the photos never leave it.
How this converter works
Your browser reads each photo from your disk and draws it into a JPG at the quality you choose. Safari on a Mac or iPhone can open HEIC itself; other browsers first load an open-source HEIC decoder (libheif, compiled to WebAssembly) from this site. Either way, no photo is sent to a server.
The JPG contains the picture and nothing else. The camera model, the capture time and the GPS location stay in the original file, which is useful when you are about to share the copy, and worth knowing if you wanted to keep them.
Why the JPG is often bigger
HEIC compresses far better than JPEG, so the same picture at a similar quality usually takes more space as a JPG. Lowering the quality slider trades size for detail. Why a converted JPEG is bigger explains the numbers.
FAQ
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The page converts them inside your browser. Nothing about the photos, not even their names, is sent anywhere.
Which formats can I convert?
HEIC and HEIF from iPhones and iPads, plus WEBP and AVIF, and PNG if you want a JPG of one. Each becomes a JPG.
Does the JPG keep the location and camera details?
No. The copy has the picture only. If you need the metadata kept, use a converter that copies it, such as Preview or Image Converter on a Mac.
Is there a limit on how many photos I can convert?
There is no set limit. Very large batches are limited by your device's memory, because every photo is decoded in the browser.
Converting photos on a Mac?
Image Converter handles batches of any size, converts to PNG and HEIC as well, and lets you decide whether the camera details and location travel with the copy.
