Drop your .heic photo onto the page, or click to browse — selecting many at once is fine.
For multiple photos, choose the batch option and every one converts to JPG and lands in a single ZIP download.
For a single photo, use the editor to crop, rotate or adjust before saving if you want — or just save it straight away.
The JPG downloads to your device; the original HEIC on your phone or disk is untouched.
Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos as HEIC — a format with excellent compression that half the world’s software still refuses to open. Windows Photo Viewer shrugs, older editors error out, and web forms reject the upload. The fix is converting to JPG, the format that works literally everywhere, and this page does it without your photos ever leaving your device: the HEIC is decoded by code running in your browser tab and re-saved as a standard JPG.
That privacy detail matters more for photos than for almost anything else — a camera roll is location history, faces and family. Upload-based converter sites see all of it; this one cannot. Select several photos at once and they convert in a batch straight to a ZIP, or drop a single shot and fine-tune it in the editor (crop, rotate, quality) before saving.
100% private“Photos are the most personal files most people own — they carry faces, places and timestamps. Every HEIC you convert here is decoded and re-encoded by your own browser; nothing is uploaded, logged or seen by anyone.”
HEIC compresses roughly twice as well as JPG at the same quality, so Apple made it the default to halve photo storage. You can make an iPhone shoot JPG directly (Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible), at the cost of larger files.
The conversion decodes the full-quality HEIC image and re-encodes it as a high-quality JPG, so any loss is visually negligible. What JPG cannot carry over is HEIC’s Live Photo motion or depth data — the still image itself comes through intact.
Yes — select as many photos as you like; they convert one after another and download together as a single ZIP. Very large batches are limited only by your device’s memory.
HEIF is the general container and HEIC its most common flavour — both open here. If a file refuses to decode it may use a codec variant your browser’s decoder does not know; converting it on a Mac with Preview is the fallback.
