Why iPhone uses HEIC
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container, .heic/.heif) keeps quality with ~50% smaller files than JPG. Apple uses it by default since iOS 11. Problem: Windows, older Android, email and many websites don’t open HEIC without converting to JPG.
Steps — convert HEIC to JPG in browser
- Open the converter: Go to HEIC to JPG (works on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows).
- Drop your HEICs: Drag & drop or tap Browse files. Select one or many .heic/.heif files. Previews appear instantly.
- Choose quality: Keep 90% for photos (recommended). Lower for smaller files, 100% for max fidelity. Optionally tick Resize and set width/height — aspect ratio stays locked.
- Convert & download: Tap Convert to JPG → Download per file or Download All JPGs. Files are white-background JPGs, universal everywhere.

Tips to keep quality
- Use 90–95% quality — looks identical to HEIC, smaller than 100%.
- Don’t re-save the same JPG many times — each save adds loss. Keep the HEIC as master.
- For web, consider Image to WebP after converting — even smaller than JPG.
