How to heic to jpg
- STEP 1
Choose your HEIC photos
Select as many as you like. Batches of several hundred are normal.
- STEP 2
Pick a quality level
82 is a good default — visually identical to the original at roughly a third of the size.
- STEP 3
Download the JPEGs
One file per photo, or a single ZIP if you converted more than one.
What survives, and what does not
HEIC is a genuinely better format — smaller files at higher quality — but Apple adopted it years before the rest of the world caught up. Converting to JPEG trades some efficiency for the ability to hand the photo to literally anything.
Full resolution — no downscaling unless you ask
Correct orientation, baked in from the rotation tag
Colour, converted to sRGB so it looks right everywhere
The HDR gain map, which JPEG cannot carry
Depth and portrait-mode data
Live Photo motion — only the still frame converts
Honest limits are published on every tool page. If a tool cannot do something well, it says so here rather than letting you find out after the download.
HEIC to JPG questions
Does converting HEIC to JPG lose quality?
Slightly, because JPEG is a lossy format — but at quality 82 or above the difference is invisible at normal viewing sizes. Choose PNG instead if you need it to be lossless.
Will my photo keep its location data?
Re-encoding through the browser discards EXIF, including GPS. If you want to keep it, that is a limitation right now rather than a feature — say so and it will be prioritised.
Can I convert HEIC on Windows?
Yes. That is the point of doing this in the browser — no HEIF extension to install and no Microsoft Store purchase.
Why does my browser say it cannot decode the file?
Not every browser ships a HEIC decoder. Safari and recent Chrome on macOS handle it natively; elsewhere the dedicated decoder is still being wired up, and the tool will tell you plainly rather than producing a broken file.
