Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert HEIC to JPEG?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) uses lossy or lossless encoding and is best for Apple device photos — iPhone and Mac default format with excellent compression efficiency. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) uses lossy compressed encoding and excels at photographs, web images, and social media where smaller file size matters more than perfect quality. Converting between them lets you take advantage of each format's strengths — for example, using a compressed format for sharing and a lossless format for editing. All conversion happens locally in your browser with no file size limits.

Will my photo's location and camera data survive the conversion?

Yes. The converter preserves EXIF metadata including GPS coordinates, camera model, lens info, and shooting date from your original HEIC file.

Why is my iPhone photo HEIC instead of JPG?

Apple switched to HEIC starting with iOS 11 because it compresses images to about half the size of JPG without visible quality loss. This tool converts them back to JPG for wider compatibility.

Can I convert HEIC photos taken in burst mode?

Yes. Upload each burst photo individually — there is no limit on how many files you can convert. The tool processes one image at a time.

What happens to the transparency in my HEIC image?

HEIC supports transparency but JPG does not. If your HEIC has an alpha channel, the converter flattens it against a white background during conversion.

Is there a maximum file size I can convert?

There is no hard limit, but very large HEIC files (50MB+) may take longer to process depending on your device's memory. Most iPhone photos are 1-5MB and convert instantly.
