Convert iPhone HEIC Photos to JPEG for Easy Sharing
Photos taken on iPhone are saved in HEIC format, which often can't be opened on Windows PCs or Android devices. Convert to JPEG and compress — all in your browser — so your photos work everywhere.

Why This Takes Longer Than It Should
Almost everyone has sent an iPhone photo to a Windows PC and watched it fail to open. HEIC has been the iOS default since iOS 11 and stores the same quality in roughly half the space — but stock Windows, older business systems, and most submission forms still don't read it. When the recipient specifies JPEG, converting is the only path.
What's Actually At Risk Here
- ✓What you convert is usually personal — family photos, documents you shot. None of it needs to pass through a free conversion site.
- ✓Stripping EXIF during conversion prevents submitting a file that still carries the GPS coordinate of where it was taken.
- ✓Batch conversion stays entirely local, so the amount of data leaving your device stays at zero no matter how many files.

Where People Get Tripped Up
These catch people out even when the steps are followed correctly. Skimming them first saves a redo.
- HEIC to JPEG is a re-encode, so quality drops slightly. Keep the HEIC originals.
- JPEG files come out larger than HEIC. If that pushes you over an attachment limit, compress afterwards.
- Live Photos convert as a single still. The motion portion is not carried over.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does converting HEIC to JPEG reduce quality?
- Both HEIC and JPEG are lossy formats, so there may be a slight quality change during conversion. Choose a high-quality setting in the compress tool to minimize any degradation.
- Can I set my iPhone to shoot in JPEG instead?
- Yes. On iPhone, go to Settings → Camera → Formats and choose 'Most Compatible' to capture in JPEG going forward.
