Frequently asked questions
What is the easiest way to open a HEIC file?
Convert it to JPG. Drop the file on this page and download the result. Photos are converted on your device, so nothing is uploaded. If you only need to view HEIC files on Windows, you can install Microsoft’s extensions instead.
Is this HEIC converter really free?
Yes. There is no account, watermark or daily limit. You can add up to 100 photos at a time.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
Not for JPG, PNG, WebP, PDF or BMP. Those are converted in your browser. GIF, TIFF and HEIC output need server software, so photos for those formats are uploaded, converted and deleted straight away. We say so on each page.
Why do iPhones use HEIC?
It stores photos in about half the space of a JPG at similar quality. Read what HEIC is and how it compares with JPEG.
Can I make my iPhone take JPG photos?
Yes: Settings, Camera, Formats, Most Compatible. Here is what you give up.
Does conversion keep my photos’ date and location?
In-browser conversion does not copy photo tags into the new file. To keep them, export from the Photos app. See how.
