How to Convert HEIC to JPG in Your Browser
Convert HEIC photos to lossy JPG in your browser. Check output quality and compatibility before sharing; batch processing is supported.
HEIC is used by supported Apple devices in High Efficiency capture mode. It can save storage, but file size and quality vary. Whether another app opens it depends on that app, its version and installed codecs.
The quickest fix is to convert your HEIC files to JPG, a universally supported format that works everywhere.
How to Convert HEIC to JPG Online (No Download Required)
The fastest method that works on any device:
- Go to the HEIC to JPG converter on this site.
- Click Choose Files and select your HEIC photo(s). You can upload multiple files at once.
- Adjust the quality slider if needed (default 92), then inspect the result.
- Click Convert and wait a few seconds.
- Download your JPG file(s).
The conversion happens entirely in your browser — your photos are never sent to a server.
Other Ways to Convert HEIC to JPG
On Mac
Open the HEIC file in Preview, then go to File → Export and choose JPEG as the format. You can also select multiple files in Finder, right-click, and use Quick Actions → Convert Image.
On Windows
Windows support depends on the app and installed HEIF/HEVC extensions. If your editor can open the photo and offers JPEG export, use that option. Codec availability and cost can vary. Windows 10/11 can open HEIC files after you install the free HEIF Image Extensions from the Microsoft Store. To convert, open the file in the Photos app and choose Save a copy → JPEG.
Change iPhone Settings to Shoot in JPG
If you'd rather avoid HEIC altogether going forward, go to Settings → Camera → Formats and select Most Compatible. Your iPhone will save new photos as JPG instead of HEIC.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does converting HEIC to JPG reduce quality? JPEG is lossy. Compare fine text, gradients and edges in the downloaded image at its intended display size. A high quality setting does not guarantee an invisible difference, and the output can be larger or smaller than the input.
Can I convert multiple HEIC files at once? Yes. The HEIC to JPG converter on this site supports batch conversion — select all your files at once and they'll all be converted in one go.
Why does my Windows PC say it can't open HEIC? Check the app version and any HEIF/HEVC extension requirements. If you cannot open the original there, try the browser converter or a compatible desktop editor, then verify the JPEG in the receiving app.
