HEIC to JPG: Convert Apple Photos to a Universal Format
Key Takeaways
- HEIC is Apple's default photo format since iOS 11, but most Windows PCs, Android devices, and web platforms cannot open HEIC files natively.
- Converting HEIC to JPG makes your iPhone and iPad photos instantly shareable with anyone on any device or platform.
- HEIC files are roughly 50% smaller than JPG at the same quality, but JPG's universal support makes conversion necessary for cross-platform use.
If you have an iPhone or iPad, your photos are likely saved in HEIC format — Apple's efficient image format that saves storage space. The problem is that HEIC is poorly supported outside the Apple ecosystem. Windows users, Android devices, many websites, email clients, and social platforms struggle with HEIC files. Converting HEIC to JPG instantly solves every compatibility issue, making your Apple photos work everywhere.
HEIC is 50% more space-efficient than JPG, but JPG works on 100% of devices and platforms
Compatibility Trade-off
When to Convert HEIC to JPG
Sharing Photos with Non-Apple Users
Friends and family on Windows or Android cannot always open HEIC files. Convert to JPG before sending photos via email, messaging apps, or cloud sharing.
Uploading to Websites and Forms
Many web upload forms, job applications, government portals, and social media platforms do not accept HEIC. JPG is accepted virtually everywhere.
Photo Editing on Windows
While newer versions of Windows support HEIC with an extension, many photo editors and batch processing tools work more reliably with JPG input.
Creating Photo Books and Prints
Online photo printing services, canvas print companies, and photobook creators almost universally require JPG format for uploads.
Tips for HEIC to JPG Conversion
Use quality 90-95 when converting to preserve the excellent detail captured by your iPhone camera.
On iPhone, you can set the camera to save as JPG directly: Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible. But this uses more storage.
HEIC files may contain Live Photo data and depth maps that will not transfer to JPG — only the main image is converted.
If you need to convert many photos at once, drag and drop multiple HEIC files for batch conversion.
HEIC decoding and JPG encoding happen entirely in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy for your personal images.
