HEIC to JPG converter
Convert iPhone photos to JPG in your browser — with the original date, location and camera info intact.
Why convert HEIC to JPG
JPG is the one image format that opens everywhere. Every phone, every desktop, every photo kiosk, every web form that rejects your iPhone upload — all of them read JPG without a plugin or an extension. That is the entire reason this conversion exists.
JPG uses lossy compression, so each save discards some detail to keep the file small. For photographs this is almost always the right trade: a converted JPG at 85% quality is hard to tell apart from the HEIC original, and lands at roughly the same size or slightly larger. Drop the slider below 70 and you will start to see blocking in skies and smooth gradients.
Pick JPG when you are emailing photos, uploading to a site that rejects HEIC, printing, or handing files to someone on Windows. Pick PNG instead if you need transparency or plan to keep editing the file.
Questions
Does this keep the original photo date?
Yes. The shot date, GPS position, camera make and model, and exposure settings are read from the HEIC file and written into the converted JPG. Most online converters drop all of it, which is why converted photos often end up sorted under today's date in your gallery. If you want the date kept but not the place, tick "Remove location" and only the GPS position is left out.
What if a HEIC file holds more than one image?
Some HEIC files contain several images. Turn on "Extract every frame" and each one is saved as a separate file, numbered in order. With the option off, only the main image is converted. The moving part of a Live Photo is a separate video file, not part of the HEIC, so it is not converted.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. Decoding runs inside your browser using WebAssembly. The files are read from disk into memory and never sent over the network, which also means conversion speed depends on your own device.
Can I make the converted photos smaller?
Yes. Set "Max size" to limit the longest side, for example to 1920 or 1600 pixels for a website or an email. Photos smaller than the limit are left at their original size. Lowering the quality slider makes the files smaller as well.
How many files can I convert at once?
There is no hard limit. Past about 25 files the browser slows down noticeably on phones and older laptops, so you will see a warning, but you can continue.
