Question 1

What is HEIC?

Accepted Answer

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format on iPhones and some Android devices. It offers smaller file sizes than JPG at similar quality. Converting to JPG makes photos easier to share on social media, email, and websites that do not support HEIC, and the conversion runs in your browser so files never leave your device.

Question 2

Can I convert multiple files?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Select multiple HEIC files when you upload; the tool processes them one by one and shows progress. You can download each JPG individually or use the option to download all converted photos in a single ZIP. There is no fixed limit—very large batches may take longer depending on your device.

Question 3

Is quality lost?

Accepted Answer

JPG uses lossy compression, so there can be a small quality reduction compared to the original HEIC. For typical use (sharing, printing, web) the result is usually very good and the difference is hard to notice. If you need maximum quality, keep the HEIC originals for archival and use JPG for sharing.

Question 4

Are my photos sent to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device or get stored on our servers. This keeps your photos private and is ideal for personal or sensitive images.

Question 5

Why download as ZIP?

Accepted Answer

When you convert many files, downloading one ZIP is faster than saving each JPG individually. The ZIP contains all converted images with the same names (with .jpg extension). You can then extract them on your computer or phone and share or backup as needed.

Question 6

Does it work on iPhone and iPad?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Open the tool in Safari (or another browser) on your iPhone or iPad, then tap to add HEIC photos from your camera roll or Files app. The conversion runs in the browser and you can download each JPG or a ZIP. No app install is required.

Question 7

Are metadata and EXIF preserved?

Accepted Answer

Basic metadata such as date taken can be preserved when the conversion is done in the browser, depending on the library used. For full EXIF (camera model, GPS, etc.) preservation, some tools may strip or simplify it when encoding JPG. If you need exact EXIF, check the output or use a dedicated desktop tool.

Question 8

What is the output resolution?

Accepted Answer

The converted JPG keeps the same dimensions (pixel width and height) as the original HEIC. Only the format and compression change; resolution is not reduced. You get a standard JPG that you can use for print or web at the same size as the source.

Question 9

Can I convert HEIC to PNG or WebP instead?

Accepted Answer

This tool converts HEIC to JPG only. JPG is the most widely supported format for sharing and is sufficient for most uses. If you need PNG (e.g. for transparency) or WebP, you would need to convert HEIC to JPG first, then use another tool to convert JPG to the desired format, or use a converter that supports HEIC to PNG/WebP directly.

Question 10

How do I open a HEIC file on Windows/PC?

Accepted Answer

Windows does not open HEIC files natively; you may see a message that an app is needed. Converting HEIC to JPG with this tool solves the problem: upload the HEIC here, download the JPG, and open it in any Windows app. No extra software is required on your PC.

Question 11

What is the difference between HEIC and JPG?

Accepted Answer

HEIC typically produces smaller file sizes than JPG at similar visual quality, which is why iPhones use it. JPG is much more widely supported: it opens everywhere (Windows, websites, email, social media), while HEIC often requires conversion or specific apps. JPG uses lossy compression, so converting from HEIC to JPG can slightly reduce quality, but for most uses the result is excellent. In short: HEIC means smaller files and better compatibility with Apple devices; JPG means universal compatibility and slightly larger files.

Question 12

Can I convert a JPG back to HEIC?

Accepted Answer

Converting JPG back to HEIC is possible with some tools but usually not useful: JPG is lossy, so you would be saving already compressed data into HEIC without regaining the original quality or file size. For iPhone users, the best approach is to keep HEIC originals on the device or in iCloud and convert to JPG only when you need to share or use the photo elsewhere. This tool is for HEIC to JPG only; to keep new iPhone photos in HEIC, leave the camera format set to HEIC in Settings.
