What is HEIC to JPG Converter?

Convert HEIC and HEIF photos to JPG online with adjustable quality, batch conversion, preview, and a .zip download for multiple photos.

How to convert HEIC photos to JPG

Turn HEIC or HEIF photos — the format iPhones save by default since iOS 11 — into widely compatible JPG files you can upload, email, or edit anywhere.

How to use it

  • Drop or choose one or more .heic or .heif files.
  • Adjust JPEG quality if you need a smaller file.
  • Convert, then preview and download each photo, or all of them together.

Why iPhone photos need converting

iOS saves camera photos as HEIC by default because it compresses more efficiently than JPEG at a similar quality. Most non-Apple apps, older devices, many upload forms, and most web browsers besides Safari still expect JPEG, so converting once keeps a photo usable everywhere.

Quality and orientation

  • Quality controls JPEG compression from 10 to 100; higher keeps more detail at a larger file size.
  • EXIF orientation is applied before conversion, so photos taken sideways or upside down come out right-side up.
  • For a Live Photo, only the still HEIC frame is converted — the paired video motion is not included.

Batch conversion example

Convert a phone's camera roll export

Drop IMG_0231.HEIC and IMG_0232.HEIC, set quality to 90, then convert. Download each JPG individually or together in converted-images.zip.

Processed on our server, kept nowhere

Each photo is sent to a ProntoUso server so it can be decoded — HEIC has no built-in browser decoder outside Safari — and re-encoded as JPEG. It is processed only in memory for that one request and is never written to disk or kept afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my photo uploaded?

Yes. It is sent to a ProntoUso server for conversion, processed in memory only for that one request, and never stored or logged.

Which files can I convert?

HEIC and HEIF files, including the photos an iPhone camera saves by default.

Does converting reduce quality?

JPEG re-encoding is lossy, so some quality is lost compared to the original HEIC. Raising the quality slider keeps more detail at the cost of a larger file.

What happens to Live Photos?

Only the still HEIC frame converts to JPG. The short video that makes up the rest of a Live Photo is a separate file and is not included.

Can I convert several photos at once?

Yes. Drop multiple files, convert them as a batch, and download each JPG individually or all together as a .zip.
