Why browser-side matters
Most online HEIC converters upload your photos to their servers. We don't. Here's why that changes everything.

JPG, PNG, WebP, or PDF — which should you pick?
HEIC converts cleanly to all four. The right target depends on where the photo is going.
When JPG isn't the best choice
JPG is the safe default: every phone, browser, printer, and upload form accepts it. But it's lossy and has no transparency. If your image has a transparent background — a logo, a sticker, an icon — JPG flattens it onto a solid color, so convert to PNG instead. For screenshots and sharp text, PNG also keeps edges crisp where JPG can smear them.
One thing to know: HEIC is already a compressed format, so converting to JPG re-encodes the photo once. At our default quality the difference is invisible for normal photos, but if you plan to edit and re-save repeatedly, keep an original copy.
How this compares to the other converters
Want the smallest file for a website? HEIC to WebP is typically 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same quality. Need transparency or lossless quality? HEIC to PNG. Sending photos as one document to print or email? HEIC to PDF bundles them into a single file. Just want to look at a .heic without converting? The HEIC viewer opens it in place.
All of them run entirely in your browser — same privacy, same batch support, no uploads.

What is HEIC and why does my iPhone use it?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format since iOS 11. It uses about half the storage of JPG at the same quality. The downside: Windows, Android, and most websites can't open it without conversion.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Conversion runs 100% in your browser using WebAssembly. Your files never touch a server. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and conversion still works.
What's the maximum file size?
Up to 50 MB per file, and up to 50 files at once. Very large batches may slow down depending on your device, since everything runs locally.
Can I batch convert multiple files?
Yes. Drop multiple HEIC files at once and you'll get a single ZIP with all the converted JPGs.
Is the JPG quality lossy?
JPG is inherently lossy, but we export at quality 92 (visually indistinguishable from the original for almost all photos). The resulting JPG is typically 1.5–2× the original HEIC size.
Is this really free?
Yes — supported by unobtrusive ads. No signup, no email, no watermark. Forever free.
