How to use this tool

How to use this tool

  1. Add your HEIC photo

    Drag and drop a .heic or .heif file, or pick one from your device. iPhone photos save as HEIC, which often won't open on Windows or Android — this tool fixes that.

  2. Choose the output format

    Pick JPG (smallest, best for sharing), PNG (lossless), or WebP when your browser can encode it. For JPG and WebP you can also set the quality.

  3. Convert and download

    The HEIC is decoded right in your browser with a built-in decoder, then re-saved in your chosen format and downloaded instantly — the file never leaves your device.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Why won't my iPhone HEIC photos open on Windows or Android?

iPhones save photos as HEIC by default, a format Windows and Android often can't display without extra software. Converting to JPG (or PNG) makes the photo open everywhere — and here it's done in your browser, so the photo never leaves your device.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The HEIC is decoded and converted entirely in your browser — your photo never leaves your device and nothing is uploaded.

How can this work if Chrome and Firefox can't open HEIC?

Most browsers can't decode HEIC on their own — only Safari can, partly. We bundle a HEIC decoder (libheif, compiled to WebAssembly, about 1 MB) that runs locally in your browser. It loads on demand the first time you convert, so it doesn't slow down the rest of the page — and it still uploads nothing.

Which output formats can I get?

JPG and PNG work everywhere. WebP is offered only when your browser can encode it — if it can't, we tell you instead of silently giving you a different format. The original HEIC is genuinely decoded and converted, not just renamed.

Are there HEIC files that won't convert?

Most iPhone photos convert fine. Some exotic HEIC variants (10-bit, depth maps, image sequences/bursts) may not decode — if that happens we show a clear message instead of producing a broken file. For bursts we convert the main (primary) image.
